I've Got a Name for the Newborn Child

Lyrics
Oh, oh, sing and then back to work, yes, back again Now's the time to pick the fruit, do with a pale branch, do Green corn in the field, river running like a wheel There's a child on the way and he's a child of God I've got a name for the newborn child I've got a name for the meek and mild I've got a name, you know it well Sitting on the rock on Christmas Day And oh, oh, peace on you, throw off the yoke and drink a few The Peacock Fiddle Band's in town and summer's on the way Sing a song "swee-dee-dee," full-tilt river, switchback sea Got so drunk on brandywine the scales fell away I've got a name for the newborn child I've got a name for the meek and mild I've got a name, you know it well Sitting on the rock on Christmas Day I'll dance 'til the stones roll away Yeah I'll dance 'til the dimming of the day And when the truth has been revealed to be nothing we can see Rise up, rise up, I've got something to say And oh, oh, raise the sail, for this is something special Light the way with a little flame to keep the dark away Daybreak, sound the horn, lay the dead and raise the born Goodbye blackened abattoir, hello yellow dawn I've got a name for the newborn child I've got a name for the meek and mild I've got a name, you know it well Sitting on the rock on Christmas Day
