THRO' the mists of yearsA
Thro' the lies of menB
Your bloody sweat and tearsC
Your desperate hopes and fearsA
Reach us once againB
Brothers who long agoD
For life's bitter sakeE
Toiled and suffered soD
Robbery insult blowD
Rope and sword and stakeE
Toiled and suffered tillF
It burst the brightening hopeG
'Might and right' and 'will and skill 'H
That scorned and does and willF
Sword and stake and ropeG
Wat and Jack and JohnI
Tyler Straw and BallJ
Souls that faltered notK
Hearts like white iron hotK
Still we hear your callJ
Yes your 'bell is rung 'H
Yes for 'now is time 'H
Come hither every oneL
Brave ghosts whose day's not doneL
Avengers of old CrimeM
Come and lead the wayN
Hushed implacableO
Suffering no delayN
Forgetting not that dayN
Dreadful hateful fellP
When the liar KingQ
The liar GentlemenR
Wrought that foulest thingQ
Robbing murderingQ
Men who trusted themS
Come and lead the wayN
Hushed implacableO
What shall stop us sayN
On that day our dayN
Not unloosened hellP
