The Levellers - Burford Stomp lyrics

Four hundred honest men

Ran to Cromwell's Call

Four hundred honest men

Now waiting by the wall

They'll bury us down further in the ground,

Than we ever dug down for a living.

Seven years of fighting for the

Dead Man's Shilling.

We are four hundred honest men,

And nothing have we got,

For Free-born John is in the Tower

And tomorrow we'll be shot.

They'll bury us down further in the ground,

Than we ever dug down for a living.

Seven years of fighting for the

Dead Man's Shilling.
