[00:00:01] Turpin Hero - Ewan MacColl

[00:00:03] Written by：Ewan Maccoll/Peggy Seeger

[00:00:23] On hounslow heath as I rode o'er

[00:00:26] I spied a lawyer riding before

[00:00:29] Kind sir said I ain't you afraid

[00:00:32] Of turpin that mischievous blade

[00:00:36] O rare turpin hero

[00:00:39] O rare turpin o

[00:00:44] Said turpin he'd ne'er find me out

[00:00:48] I've hid my money in my boot

[00:00:51] Says the lawyer there's none can find

[00:00:54] Me gold for it's stitched in me cape behind

[00:00:57] O rare turpin hero

[00:01:01] O rare turpin o

[00:01:06] As they rode down by the powder mill

[00:01:10] Turpin commands him to be still

[00:01:13] Says he your cape I must cut off

[00:01:16] For my mare she wants a saddle cloth

[00:01:19] O rare turpin hero

[00:01:23] O rare turpin o

[00:01:28] As turpin rode in search of prey

[00:01:31] He met an excise man on the way

[00:01:34] Then boldly he did bid him stand

[00:01:37] Your gold he said I do demand

[00:01:41] O rare turpin hero

[00:01:44] O rare turpin o

[00:01:50] Turpin then without remorse

[00:01:52] Soon knocked him quite from off his horse

[00:01:56] And left him on the ground to sprawl

[00:01:59] So he rode off with his gold and all

[00:02:02] O rare turpin hero

[00:02:05] O rare turpin o

[00:02:11] So he rode over salisbury plain

[00:02:14] He met lord judge with all his train

[00:02:17] Then hero like he did approach

[00:02:20] And robbed the judge as he sat in his coach

[00:02:23] O rare turpin hero

[00:02:27] O rare turpin o

[00:02:32] For the shooting of a dung hill cock

[00:02:35] Poor turpin now at last he's took

[00:02:38] And carried straight into a jail

[00:02:41] Where his ill luck he does bewail

[00:02:44] O rare turpin hero

[00:02:48] O rare turpin o

[00:02:53] Now turpin is condemned to die

[00:02:57] To hang upon yon gallows high

[00:03:00] His legacy is a strong rope

[00:03:03] For stealing a poor dung hill cock

[00:03:06] O rare turpin hero

[00:03:09] O rare turpin o

[00:03:13] O rare turpin hero

[00:03:16] O rare turpin o
