Font:      
Align:    
  • Me i'm just a poor boy, from across the far southland,
  • And i've traveled many days to reach this place to mke my stand,
  • I fell in with a merry band, and drank away the hours.
  • Chorus
  • Rollin' on, i've been rollin' on,
  • And my head is high, from the battle won,
  • Laid down my life for the greenwood
  • The city boys, and the country boys, they come from miles around,
  • To defy their king and country, save the poor folks from the hand,
  • Of the thieving dukes and abbotts, and the gentry of the land.
  • Chorus
  • Rollin' on, i've been rollin' on,
  • And my head is high, from the battle won,
  • Laid down my life for the greenwood
  • Sweet maid marion, don't you do me no wrong,
  • Stay on the right side, the greenwood is your home,,
  • The dancing girls and the open fires, the wine that flows like water.
  • Chorus
  • Rollin' on, i've been rollin' on,
  • And my head is high, from the battle won,
  • Laid down my life for the greenwood
