The highway phantoms haunt the roads Beware these villains from years ago With trusty steed loaded gun and knife Ghostly deeds run into the night With strange hats and long black capes Old English roads where a dangerous place They ambush from the trees at night Innocent victims were robbed at first sight
No one was safe at night on those lonely roads Terror and fear in their eyes as they died
Stand and deliver your money or your life These were the words of the highwayman at night Stand and deliver your money or your life These were the words of the highwayman at night
Legends and ghosts haunt the great north road Robbing travellers and coaches long ago These thieves of England died so young Their ghosts keep haunting on and on Some were hanged at Tyburn tree Their bodies left out for all to see To hang and rot for their treachery This was punishment for highway robbery
No one was safe at night on those lonely roads Terror and fear in their eyes as they died
Stand and deliver your money or your life These were the words of the highwayman at night Stand and deliver your money or your life These were the words of the highwayman at night
It cannot be denied that some had flare Some had the devils eye in their stare A gang of six which including swift Nick Met at Talbot Inn and robbed the rich Dick Turpin was most famous of them all He used to be a butcher before coming an outlaw Terrorising victims until the bitter end He still rides in Epping according to legend
No one was safe at night on those lonely roads Terror and fear in their eyes as they died
Stand and deliver your money or your life These were the words of the highwayman at night Stand and deliver your money or your life These were the words of the highwayman at nightTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
