I am a Brave Freefighter
Well me armour’s hard and me sword is sharp,
As I go about the comp’ny’s work,
Spattered with blood and smeared with dirt,
I am a brave freefighter
I hefts me sword and off I goes
Marching off where no-one knows,
To fight off where the fortunes grow
I am a brave freefighter
Now battle is a terrible place
There’s blood and death all o’er the place
And enemies with sword and mace
Will kill a brave freefighter
So dinnae gang near ‘em, form a line
Grasp yer spear and firm yer spine
I’ll take yer life, you’ll not have mine
I am a brave freefighter
I’ll grasp my sword and yer head as well
And slash yer soul to merry hell
Down you go, die where yer fell
I’m a bloody faced freefighter
Well me armour’s hard and me sword is sharp,
As I go about the comp’ny’s work,
Spattered with blood and smeared with dirt,
A bloody faced freefighter
So join the comp’ny while you may
Don’t wait ‘til yer dying day
For that may not be far away.
You bloody faced freefighter.
