Original lyrics
EN(chorus x2)
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.
Four hundred honest men
Ran to Cromwell's call
Four hundred honest men
Are now waiting by the wall
Four hundred honest men
Ran to Cromwell's call
Four hundred honest men
Are now waiting by the wall
CHORUS X2
Four hundred honest men
Ran to Cromwell's call
Four hundred honest men
Now waiting by the wall
We are four hundred honest men,
And nothing have we got,
'Cause Free-born John is in the Tower
And tomorrow we'll be shot.
CHORUS X2
