    Lyrics:
    When a humble bard
    Graced a ride along
    With Geralt of Rivia
    Along came this song
    From when the White Wolf fought
    A silver-tongued devil
    His army of elves
    At his hooves did they revel
    They came after me
    With masterful deceit
    Broke down my lute
    And they kicked in my teeth
    While the devil’s horns
    Minced our tender meat
    And so cried the Witcher
    He can’t be bleat
    Toss a coin to your Witcher
    O’ Valley of Plenty
    O’ Valley of Plenty
    O’
    Toss a coin to Your Witcher
    O’ Valley of Plenty
    At the edge of the world
    Fight the mighty horde
    That bashes and breaks you
    And brings you the morn’
    He thrust every elf
    Far back on the shelf
    High up on the mountain
    From whence it came
    He wiped out your pest
    Got kicked in his chest
    He’s a friend of humanity
    So give him the rest
    That’s my epic tale
    A champion prevailed
    Defeated the villain
    Now pour him some ale
    Toss a coin to your Witcher
    O’ Valley of Plenty
    O’ Valley of Plenty
    O’
    Toss a coin to your Witcher
    And friend of humanity
    Toss a coin to your Witcher
    O’ Valley of Plenty
    O’ Valley of Plenty
    O’
    And friend of humanity
    Toss a coin to your Witcher
    O’ Valley of Plenty
    O’ Valley of Plenty
    O’
    Toss a coin to your Witcher
    A friend of humanity
