Daddy’s at the food store, Mummy’s out of town,

She’s working at the hospital since Rhona came to town,

Hide away, hide away, Miss Rhona’s come to town,

Hide away, hide away, she’s come to take us down.

Miss Rhona’s at the doorstep, I’ll keep 6 feet away,

But Grandma needs the paper, I’ll take her some today,

Hide away, hide away, Miss Rhona’s come to stay,

Hide away, hide away, we can’t come out to play.

But Grandma needs the paper, I’ll take her some today,

And here’s a note from Rhona, she wanted me to say,

Hide away, hide away, keep 6 feet away,

Hide away, hide away, she took us down today.

[Image ID: Tumblr user @neanderthyall says in the notes, “I thought that 6 feet was kind of a double meaning. Like six feet away to stop the spread, but when people die they’re six feet underground, and its six feet of the dirt that keeps you apart. Like ‘Hide away, hide away, even though it hurts Hide away, hide away, or the six feet will be dirt’.” End ID.]

HI DON’T LEAVE THIS IN THE NOTES THAT’S ACTUALLY BRILLIANT

I’ve taken the liberty of expanding the lyrics slightly and coming up with a tune:

Daddy’s at the food store, Mummy’s out of town,
She’s working at the hospital since Rhona came to town,
Hide away, hide away, Miss Rhona’s come to town,
Hide away, hide away, she’s come to take us down.

Miss Rhona’s at the doorstep, I’ll keep 6 feet away,
But Grandma needs the paper, I’ll take her some today,
Hide away, hide away, Miss Rhona’s come to stay,
Hide away, hide away, we can’t come out to play.

I need to see the sunlight, I’ve not been out in days
And here’s a note from Rhona, she wanted me to say,
Hide away, hide away, keep 6 feet away,
Hide away, hide away, she took us down today

The days all run together, I haven’t changed my shirt
We may be getting restless, but keep on the alert
Hide away, hide away, even though it hurts
Hide away, hide away, or the six feet will be dirt

@billpottsismygf’s extended version. A beautiful singing voice 🎶☺️

As planned I’ve extended this even further and re-recorded it with the new lyrics and a guitar part; it’s also a bit better quality. It’s so cool that so many different versions of this song have sprung up already! I recommend having a scroll through them all on @jus-tea​​‘s tumblr.

(Em)Daddy’s at the (B7)food store, (Em)Mummy’s out of (B7)town,
She’s (Em)working at the (B7)hospital since (Em)Rhona (B7)came to (Em)town,
(Am)Hide away, hide away, Miss (Em)Rhona’s come to town,
(Am)Hide away, (Em)hide away, she’s come to (B7)take us (Em)down.

Miss Rhona’s at the doorstep, I’ll keep six feet away,
But Grandma needs the paper, I’ll take her one today,
Hide away, hide away, Miss Rhona’s come to stay,
Hide away, hide away, we can’t come out to play.

I’m missing all my friends, though we keep in touch by phone,
I’m learning what it is to truly be alone,
Hide away, hide away, even though you moan,
Hide away, hide away, or we’ll be lying prone.

My love she says she misses the twinkle of my eyes,
But Rhona stalks the streets and to meet would be unwise,
Hide away, hide away, we hear the desperate cries,
Hide away, hide away, or see the bodies rise.

I feel myself a-coughin’, I haven’t got a mask,
It’s work or die for me, though, so who am I to ask,
Hide away, hide away, Miss Rhona’s on the task,
Hide away, hide away, she’s come for me at last.

I need to see the sunlight, I’ve not been out in days,
And here’s a note from Rhona, she wanted me to say,
Hide away, hide away, keep 6 feet away,
Hide away, hide away, she took us down today.

The days all run together, I haven’t changed my shirt,
We may be getting restless, but keep on the alert,
Hide away, hide away, Miss Rhona’s quite the flirt,
Hide away, hide away, her touch is not inert.

Hide away, hide away, even though it hurts,
Hide away, hide away, or six feet will be dirt.

Damn. I am speachless.

This is no longer a children’s tune. It’s a bards ballad.

This is HAUNTING.

INSIDE ISSUE 32 // WHAT MESSAGE ARE YOU SHARING WITH YOUR AUDIENCE WITH YOUR REIMAGINING OF RENAISSANCE WORKS? I’m trying to convey that we are more similar than we are different. I try my best to free anyone who is willing to listen. I ask, ‘Why do we continue to allow others to hide our identities?’ Renaissance paintings have been defined by society as priceless and untouchable. These depictions of traditional beauty are white and exclusionary. I’ve always looked at those paintings and asked, ‘What about me? What about people of colour?’ Our story and our beauty can be just as beautiful as what the institution says is priceless and untouchable.“ Read the exclusive interview with Harmonia Rosales @honeiee in Issue 32 of Beautiful Bizarre Magazine.
