Come all you bold robbers and open your ears
Of QuantrelI the lion-heart
you quickly will hear
With his band of bold raiders in double-quick time
He came to burn
Lawrence just over the line.
Chorus:
All routing and shouting and giving the
yell
Like so many demons just raised up from Hell,
The boys they were drunken
with powder and wine
And came to burn Lawrence just over the line.
They came
to burn Lawrence, they came not to stay,
They rode in one morning at breaking of
day.
Their guns were a-waving, their horses a-foam
And QuantrelI a-riding his famous big
roan.
They came to burn Lawrence, they came not to stay
Jim Lane he was up at the
break of the day.
He saw them a-coming and got in a fright,
Then crawled in a corncrib to
get out of sight.
Oh, QuantreIl's a fighter, a bold-hearted boy,
A brave man or
woman he'll never annoy.
He'd take from the wealthy and give to the poor
For brave men
there's never a bolt to his door.
from Am. Ballads and Folksongs, Lomax
