old matua ned - david mcphail lyrics
[verse 1]
d’ere was an old maori, his name was matua ned
he dead long ago, long ago
he hab no wool on de top of his ‘poko
in de plarce where de wool ought t’grow (ought t’grow)
[chorus]
den lay down de shubble and de taiaha
hang up de fiddle and de bow *ow *ow
no more mahi for poor matua ned
he gone wha de good maoris go
no more mahi for poor matua ned….
he gone wha de good maoris go
[verse 2]
on a cold, frosty morning poor matua ned died
massa’s tears down his cheek fell like rain (fell like rain)
he knew when ned were laid in the whenua
he’d neber see his like again*ua (again*ua)
[chorus]
den lay down de shubble and de taiaha
hang up de fiddle and de bow *ow *ow
no more mahi for poor matua ned
he gone wha de good maoris go (maoris go)
he gone wha de good maoris go (maoris go)
