Wolves asleep amidst the trees

Bats all a swaying in the breeze

But one soul lies anxious wide awake

Fearing all manner of ghouls hags and wraiths

For your dolly polly sleep has flown

Don't dare let her tremble alone

For the witcher heartless cold

Paid in coin of gold

He comes he'll go leave naught behind

But heartache and woe

Deep deep woe

Folks are laying in their beds

Dreaming away their dreads

But one soul lies anxious wide awake

Fearing all manner of ghouls hags and wraiths

Tell your dolly polly start to sleep

He can't catch you if you're far and deep

For the Witcher contract sold

Paid in coin of gold

He comes he'll go

Leave naught behind

But heartache and woe

Deep deep woe

Birds are silent for the night

Cows turned in as daylight dies

But one soul lies anxious wide awake

Fearing all manner of ghouls hags and wraiths

My dear dolly polly shut your eyes

Lie still lie silent utter no cries

For the witcher brave and bold

Paid in coin of gold

He'll chop and slice you

Cut and dice you

Eat you up whole

Eat you whole
