Burford Stomp Lyrics

Levellers Burford Stomp

Four hundred honest men
Ran to Cromwell's Call
Four hundred honest men
Now waiting by the wall

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.

We are four hundred honest men,
And nothing have we got,
For Free-born John is in the Tower
And tomorrow we'll be shot.

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.
