The Skimmity Hitchers play songs in the Scrumpy & Western style (tunes you know with words you might not), mixed up with some original material. We also like to chuck a few classic drinking songs and West Country classics into the brew to ensure that the party goes with a swig and a swing. Some of these you can find below, so that no-one ever needs to feel left out!

I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler, I'm a long way from home
If you don't like me, well leave me alone
I'll eat when I'm hungry, I'll drink when I'm dry
If the moonshine don't kill me, I'll live till I die

Oh Dorset is beautiful wherever you go
And the rain in the summertime makes the wurzel bush grow
And it's pleasant to sit in the thunder and the hail
With your girlfriend on a turnip clamp to hear the sweet nightingale

All for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me beer and tobacco
For I've spent all me tin on the maidens drinking gin
So across the western ocean I must wander...

Show me the way to go home, I'm tired and I want to go to bed
I had a little drink about an hour ago and it's gone right to my head
No matter where I roam, on land or sea or foam
You will always hear me singing this song, show me the way to go home
