John Kay - Bold Marauder Lyrics
Words and music by Richard FarinaAnd it's hi ho hey, I am a bold marauderAnd it's hi ho hey, I am the white destroyerFor I will show you silver and gold, and I will bring you treasureI will wave a widowing flag, and I will be your loverAnd I will show you grotto and cave and sacrificial alterAnd I will show you blood on the stone and I will be your mentorAnd night will be our darling and fear will be our nameAnd it's hi ho hey, I am the bold marauderAnd it's hi ho hey, I am the white destroyerFor I will take you out by the hand and lead you to the hunterAnd I will show you thunder and steel and I will be your teacherAnd we will dress in helmet and sword and dip our tongues in slaughterAnd we will sing a warrior's song and lift the praise of murderAnd Christ will be our darling and fear will be our nameAnd it's hi ho hey, I am the bold marauderAnd it's hi ho hey, I am the white destroyerFor I will sour the winds on high and I will soil the riverAnd I will burn the grain in the field and I will be your motherAnd I will go to ravage and kill and will go to plunderAnd I will take a fury to wife and I will be your motherAnd death will be our darling and fear will be our name M.
