Red Fox |
| Coming out into the day and all that I can see |
| Is the red and white of the King’s army |
| I’ll meet with them among the pine |
| I’ll meet with them by noon |
| The dirge will sound on the morrow’s noon |
| I was not born into this time |
| To cleave the soil or work the mine |
| I came to claim my enemy |
| And be the fox’s destiny |
| I follow on in silence with a quiet heart in fear |
| I will be done before the dawn if I’m found here |
| I stand up as he passes and the time has come at last |
| The prey goes down at the metals crash |
| I was not born into this time |
| To cleave the soil or work the mine |
| I came to claim my enemy |
| And be the fox’s destiny |
| Kidnapped in the dead of night |
| I did no wrong, I will not fight |
| It was not me, I will not run |
| But I believe in what was done |
| John, John, there’s something wrong |
| The guns are found and the fox is gone |
| John, John, before too long |
| It will be me they hang it on |
| So send me off to the colony shore |
| Or send me where I’ll laugh no more |
| I will tell none of what I know |
| Let the hunter walk where need must go |
| John, John, there’s something wrong |
| The guns are found and the fox is gone |
| John, John, before too long |
| It will be me they hang it on |
| I will tell none of what I know |
| Let the hunter walk where need must go |
| John, John, before too long |
| It will be me they hang this on |
