letra de turpin hero - ewan maccoll
on hounslow heath as i rode o’er
i spied a lawyer riding before.
“kind sir,” said i, “ain’t you afraid,
of turpin, that mischievous blade?”
o rare turpin hero
o rare turpin o
said turpin, “he’d ne’er find me out
i’ve hid my money in my boot.”
says the lawyer, “there’s none can find
me gold for it’s st-tched in me cape behind.”
o rare turpin hero
o rare turpin o
as they rode down by the powder mill
turpin commands him to be still;
says he, “your cape i must cut off,
for my mare she wants a saddle cloth.”
o rare turpin hero
o rare turpin o
as turpin rode in search of prey
he met an excise man on the way
then boldly he did bid him stand
your gold he said i do demand
o rare turpin hero
o rare turpin o
turpin then without remorse
soon knocked him quite from off his horse
and left him on the ground to sprawl
so he rode off with his gold and all
o rare turpin hero
o rare turpin o
so he rode over salisbury plain
he met lord judge with all his train
then hero-like he did approach
and robbed the judge as he sat in his coach
o rare turpin hero
o rare turpin o
for the shooting of a dung-hill c-ck
poor turpin now at last he’s took
and carried straight into a jail
where his ill luck he does bewail
o rare turpin hero
o rare turpin o
now turpin is condemned to die
to hang upon yon gallows high
his legacy is a strong rope
for stealing a poor dung-hill c-ck
o rare turpin hero
o rare turpin o
