The Jolly Rogers - Thirty Men lyrics

Your rating:

Thirty men were killed here

And thirty widows made

This town's only felt fear

Since the first stones were laid



Thirty men stood their ground

For son, daughter and wife

Facing death they were bound

To save their love, their life



Thirty men stared ahead

And saw their fate advance

Though their hearts were filled with dread

They kept their rigid stance



Thirty men cut and killed

Though their cause was lost

On the earth their blood was spilled

Their courage had this cost 



Thirty widows in grief

To every hearth were bent

Flame would be their relief

Since all their hope was spent



Thirty widows took away

From the fire a burning brand

They set torch to wood and hay

Their homes burned by their hand



The Enemy stood and gazed

And saw their plunder burn

Then they all turned away

And never did return



Freedom won, the cost was dear

The sacrifice was paid

Thirty men were killed here

And thirty widows made



Thirty men were killed here

And thirty widows made

This town's only felt fear

Since the first stones were laid
