Fatguys Banner - Vert, a tankard Or.

House of the Fat Guys

(by Lord Aestan and Gorlan of the Red Lands, 1999)
(Tune: "House of the Rising Sun" by Bob Dylan)

    There is a house in Drachenwald
    They call the Fat Guys
    And it's been the ruin of many a Lord
    And God I know I’m one

    Now the only thing a Fat Guy needs
    Is a sword and a bucket of beer
    Plus a tent that's large enough
    To store all their gear

    My First household was full of heralds
    We kept the kingdoms pure and glum
    But when I was acknowledged as a Fat Guy
    I found it was much more fun.

    We have many people we call "Friends"
    And assorted camp followers too.
    We only ask, no talk of politics
    While we sit and drink our brew.

    Oh Seneschal, tell your populous.
    Not to do what we have done.
    Tell them to avoid the Fat Guys Camp
    Because they are having way too much fun.

    There is a house in Drachenwald
    They Call the Fat Guys
    And it's been the ruin of many a Lord
    And God I know I’m one


History. The Story Behind this Song

 Lord Aestan started this one. He publicly states that he dislikes filks, but they keep coming to him. I liked the start of this one and just followed the thread.
