It was Yankee the squire[00:00:00]

As I've heard the men say[00:00:03]

Who rode out a 'huntin' on one Saturday[00:00:06]

They hunted all day but nothing they found[00:00:12]

But a poor murdered woman[00:00:18]

Laid on the cold ground[00:00:21]

About eight o'clock boys the dogs[00:00:28]

They throwed off[00:00:32]

On Leatherhead Common[00:00:34]

And that was the spot[00:00:37]

They tried all the bushes but nothing they found[00:00:39]

But a poor murdered woman[00:00:45]

Laid on the cold ground[00:00:48]

They mounted their horses[00:00:56]

And they rode off the ground[00:00:58]

They rode to the village[00:01:01]

And alarmed it all around[00:01:04]

It is late in the evening I'm sorry to say[00:01:07]

She cannot be removed until the next day[00:01:13]

The next Sunday morning about eight o'clock[00:01:23]

Some hundreds of people[00:01:29]

To the spot they did flock[00:01:31]

For to see the poor creature[00:01:34]

Your hearts would have bled[00:01:37]

Some cold-hearted violence[00:01:40]

Came into their heads[00:01:43]

She was took off the common[00:01:50]

And down to some inn[00:01:53]

And the man that has kept it [00:01:56]

His name is John Simms[00:01:59]

The coroner was sent for the jury they pined[00:02:02]

And soon they concluded and settled their mind[00:02:07]

Her coffin was brought in it she was laid[00:02:45]

And took to the churchyard[00:02:51]

This cold winter day[00:02:54]

No father no mother no long friend untold[00:02:57]

Came to see the poor creature[00:03:03]

Laid under the cold[00:03:06]

So now I'll conclude and I'll finish my song[00:03:13]

And those that have damage[00:03:19]

Shall find themselves wrong[00:03:21]

The last day of Judgement[00:03:24]

The trumpet shall sound[00:03:27]

And their souls not in heaven[00:03:30]

I'm afraid won't be found[00:03:33]
