Mantrap |
| They’re always stealing off the land |
| The Earl has to take his final stand |
| Build a device to catch them all |
| I don’t give a damn if they say they’re poor |
| If you get caught there’s no going back, it’s a man trap |
| The jaws of his baby tightly snap, man trap |
| He’s old and wicked and he hates the world |
| He’s wicked as sin and his mind is gnarled |
| He’s got plenty but he doesn’t share |
| And to ask for help they wouldn’t dare |
| If you get caught there’s no going back, it’s a man trap |
| The jaws of his baby tightly snap, man trap |
| A wall heath man with his wife to keep |
| Did his duty and stole a sheep |
| Refused to grovel, he refused to beg |
| Stepped on the trigger and lost his leg |
| If you get caught there’s no going back, it’s a man trap |
| The jaws of his baby tightly snap, man trap |
| Deported abroad and is long since dead |
| The gamekeeper’s found without his head |
| His body was torn like tissue paper |
| A hidden peg-leg found years later |
| If you get caught there’s no going back, it’s a man trap |
| The jaws of his baby tightly snap, man trap |
| The jaws of his baby tightly snap, it’s a man trap |
| If you get caught there’s no going back, man trap |
