lyrics

Driving up to Tinkerbrook in a beat up Escort Van
Through the rough of Roundwood with a 410 in my hand
Open green of parkland through a rusty five bar gate
Bang, first shot the rabbit’s dead, an unforgettable fate,
On the Glemham Hall Estate

CHORUS
Jack he was a Keeper
He woke me up at five
Walked the path through fields of grass
With my Grandad by my side

For forty years he toiled
With honesty and grace
A Cobbold man who worked the land
On the Glemham Hall Estate

Brushing Day we met at eight, in the tatty stable yard
Down the drive to Big Wood in a tractor driven cart
Beat those sticks across the Oak, In a line we drew the game
Back to the cellar at lunchtime for a ploughmans on our plate
On the Glemham Hall Estate

Out of bed and down the stairs, brother Chris was still asleep
Sat in the warm kitchen with a milky cup of tea
Denny’s Grove to Bugs Barn, beside him singing songs
Memories of my childhood like yesterday still strong
