lyrics

Milton Keynes is a modern conurbation,
It’s famous for its houses and its Cow.
But I would rather be, where the air is fresh and free,
And we’ve got our special land marks any-how!

We got our Shepton Sheep, special Shepton Sheep,
You’ll see ‘em on our merry roundabout.
They don’t need grass or hay, can’t chase them away!
You’ll be surprised to see ‘em that’s no doubt –
Our Shepton Sheep, Our Shepton Sheep.

In springtime they may wear their Easter bonnets,
In summer take no shelter from the haze
In autumn sometimes seen, all dressed up for Halloween
And in winter they’ll be tethered to a sleigh!

We got our Shepton Sheep, special Shepton Sheep,
You’ll see ‘em on our merry roundabout.
They don’t need grass or hay, can’t chase them away!
You’ll be surprised to see ‘em that’s no doubt –
Our Shepton Sheep, Our Shepton Sheep.

If driving the A361 you’ll see ‘em,
It doesn’t matter at what time of day.
They’re always standing keen, a-surveying of the scene,
And that cardboard wolf that won’t chase them away!

We got our Shepton Sheep, special Shepton Sheep,
You’ll see ‘em on our merry roundabout.
They don’t need grass or hay, can’t chase them away!
You’ll be surprised to see ‘em that’s no doubt –
Our Shepton Sheep, Our Shepton Sheep
