The Escape Of Old John Webb

The Escape Of Old John Webb

(альбом: String Along - 1960)

Five men to guard the British rank and five to watch the town above
And two to stand at either hand and one to let Bill Tenner out
He had eighty weight of Spanish iron between his neck bone and his knee
But Billy took Johnny up under his arm and lugged him away right manfully

And Billy broke locks and Billy broke bolts and Billy broke all that he came nigh
Until he came to the dungeon door and that he broke right manfully

So they stole them a horse and away did ride and who what they rode gallantly
Until they came to the river bank to the river running wild and free
The British were coming close on their heels and who but they stood fearfully
Till Billy took Johnny up on his back and carried him over it easily

And Billy broke locks and Billy broke bolts and Billy broke all that he came nigh
Until he came to the dungeon door and that he broke right manfully

So they called at the inn for a room to dance and who but they danced merrily
And the very best dancer among them all was old John Webb who was just set free
