A good sword and a trusty hand
A merry heart and true
King James' men shall understand
What Cornishmen can do
Have they fixed the where and when?
Shall Trelawny die?
Well here's 20, 000 Cornishmen
Who'd know the reason why
Shall Trelawny live?
Or shall Trelawny die?
Here's 20, 000 Cornishmen
who'd know the reason why
Up spake our captain brave and bold
A merry wight was he
If London tower were Michael's hold
We'd set Trelawny free
We've crossed the Tamar land to land
The Severn is no stay
And one and all and hand in hand
Who shall bid us nay?
Shall Trelawny live?
Or shall Trelawny die?
Here's 20, 000 Cornishmen
who'd know the reason why
And when we get to London town
That pleasant site to view
Come forth, come forth ye cowards all
Here's better men than you
Trelawny he's in keep and hold
Trelawny he may die
But here's 20, 000 Cornish bold
Who'd know the reason why
Shall Trelawny live?
Or shall Trelawny die?
Here's 20, 000 Cornishmen
who'd know the reason why
Shall Trelawny live?
Or shall Trelawny die?
Here's 20, 000 Cornishmen
who'd know the reason why
