Blackdown

There is a treasure in Blackdown

Take my hand we will search high and low

There lies a treasure in Blackdown

In Blackdown together we will go

I know where at the lane leading to the gate

Push it open and then go straight

At the junction you'll turn right

Take your time the sun's still bright

There is a treasure in Blackdown

Take my hand we will search high and low

There lies a treasure in Blackdown

In Blackdown together we will go

I know where at the lane leading to the gate

Push it open and then go straight

At the junction you'll turn right

Take your time the sun's still bright

And when you see the oak just turn round

I know you think the treasure can't be found

Take a glance between the twisted trees

Hear the wind sing in their leaves

There is a treasure in Blackdown

Take my hand we will search high and low

There lies a treasure in Blackdown

In Blackdown together we will go

I know where at the lane leading to the gate

Push it open and then go straight

At the junction you'll turn right

Take your time the sun's still bright

And when you see the oak just turn round

I know you think the treasure can't be found

Take a glance between the twisted trees

Hear the wind sing in their leaves

There is a clue in the song my son

Hidden in the words by Tennyson

It can't be far be on your way

From the serpent's trail do not stray

You may be tempted by the ripe berries

We can't always do as we please

Oh don't touch a single speck of dust

Everything belongs to the national trust

When you reach a seat of stone

Have a little rest on this throne

Now get up and let us begin

You're still cold at the temple of the wind

Keep going it's not too far

The longer you seek the warmer you are

There is a treasure in Blackdown

Take my hand we will search high and low

There lies a treasure in Blackdown

In Blackdown together we will go

I know where

There is a treasure in Blackdown

In Blackdown when you are grown

There lies a treasure in Blackdown

You will find your way on your own
