The Escape of Old John Webb

Tom Drake

[Verse 1]
Five men to guard the British rank
And five to watch the town about
And two to stand at either hand
And one to let Bill Tenner out

[Verse 2]
He had eighty weight of Spanish iron
Between his neck bone and his knee
But Billy took Johnny up under his arm
And lugged him away right manfully

[Chorus]
And Billy broke locks, and Billy broke bolts
And Billy broke all that he came nigh
Until he came to the dungeon door
And that he broke right manfully

[Verse 3]
So they stole them a horse and away did ride
And who but they rode gallantly
Until they came to the riverbank
To the river runnin' wild and free

[Verse 4]
The British were comin' close on their heels
And who but they stood fearfully
'Til Billy took Johnny up on his back
And carried him over, right easily

[Chorus]
And Billy broke locks, and Billy broke bolts
And Billy broke all that he came nigh
Until he came to the dungeon door
And that he broke right manfully

[Verse 5]
So they called at the inn for a room to dance
And who but they danced merrily
And the very best dancer among them all
Was old John Webb who was just set free!
