歌曲歌詞
Oh I am a little barber and I go my merry way
With my razor and my basin
I can always earn my pay
Though your skin be smooth as satin
You will need me soon I know
For the Lord protects
His barbers and he makes the stubble grow
If I slip while I am shaving
You and cut you to the quick
You can use me as a doctor
For I also heal the sick
Hand it over
But this is nothing but a shaving basin
Shaving basin
Dost not know what this really is
Now Golden Helmet of Mambrino
With so illustrious a past
Too long hast thou been lost to glory
The 'art reunited now at last
Golden Helmet of Mambrino
There can be no hat like thee
Thee and I now 'ere I die now
Will make golden history
I can hear the cuckoo singing
In the cuckooberry tree
If he says that that's a helmet
I suggest that you agree
But he'll find it is not gold and will
Not make him bold and brave
Well at least
He'll find it useful if he ever needs a shave
Thou Golden Helmet of Mambrino
Thy deeds the world will not forget
Now Don Quixote de la Mancha
Will bring thee greater glory yet
Golden Helmet of Mambrino
There can be no hat like thee
Thee and I now 'ere I die now
Will make golden history
Now Don Quixote de la Mancha
Will bring thee greater glory yet
Golden Helmet of Mambrino
There can be no hat like thee
Thee and I now 'ere I die now
Will make golden history
