  • Look here, my friends, I've got to tell you
    The world is out, the world is out
    Trouble's coming, peace is over
    The king has hung the militia guard

    Look here, my friends, I've got to tell you
    The world is out, the world is out
    Trouble's coming, peace is over
    The king has hung the militia guard

    The kings men ran out in the light
    To fight their foe was a waste of human life
    And then they raised their fists
    Against the crushing might
    Encased the kings men sword
    Into their

    Children crying for their mothers
    How are they to know they died
    There'll be no help
    We're fighting to be free and
    The king will regret one day
    And that's not far away
    The day he hung the militia guard Writer/s: GRAHAM OLIVER, PAUL QUINN, PETER FRANCIS GILL, PETERY ROONEY BYFORD, STEPHEN DAWSON
