Turpin Hero - Ewan MacColl[00:00:01]
Written by:Ewan Maccoll/Peggy Seeger[00:00:03]
On hounslow heath as I rode o'er[00:00:23]
I spied a lawyer riding before[00:00:26]
Kind sir said I ain't you afraid[00:00:29]
Of turpin that mischievous blade[00:00:32]
O rare turpin hero[00:00:36]
O rare turpin o[00:00:39]
Said turpin he'd ne'er find me out[00:00:44]
I've hid my money in my boot[00:00:48]
Says the lawyer there's none can find[00:00:51]
Me gold for it's stitched in me cape behind[00:00:54]
O rare turpin hero[00:00:57]
O rare turpin o[00:01:01]
As they rode down by the powder mill[00:01:06]
Turpin commands him to be still[00:01:10]
Says he your cape I must cut off[00:01:13]
For my mare she wants a saddle cloth[00:01:16]
O rare turpin hero[00:01:19]
O rare turpin o[00:01:23]
As turpin rode in search of prey[00:01:28]
He met an excise man on the way[00:01:31]
Then boldly he did bid him stand[00:01:34]
Your gold he said I do demand[00:01:37]
O rare turpin hero[00:01:41]
O rare turpin o[00:01:44]
Turpin then without remorse[00:01:50]
Soon knocked him quite from off his horse[00:01:52]
And left him on the ground to sprawl[00:01:56]
So he rode off with his gold and all[00:01:59]
O rare turpin hero[00:02:02]
O rare turpin o[00:02:05]
So he rode over salisbury plain[00:02:11]
He met lord judge with all his train[00:02:14]
Then hero like he did approach[00:02:17]
And robbed the judge as he sat in his coach[00:02:20]
O rare turpin hero[00:02:23]
O rare turpin o[00:02:27]
For the shooting of a dung hill cock[00:02:32]
Poor turpin now at last he's took[00:02:35]
And carried straight into a jail[00:02:38]
Where his ill luck he does bewail[00:02:41]
O rare turpin hero[00:02:44]
O rare turpin o[00:02:48]
Now turpin is condemned to die[00:02:53]
To hang upon yon gallows high[00:02:57]
His legacy is a strong rope[00:03:00]
For stealing a poor dung hill cock[00:03:03]
O rare turpin hero[00:03:06]
O rare turpin o[00:03:09]
O rare turpin hero[00:03:13]
O rare turpin o[00:03:16]
