[00:00.000]The Prisoner - David McWilliams
[00:23.730]I am a poor prisoner
[00:26.040]Arrested and tried
[00:30.010]For a crime I committed
[00:32.890]And the law I defied
[00:37.090]In hunger I stole
[00:39.800]Some lords bread and wine
[00:44.149]Was sat on his table
[00:46.919]That his household might dine
[00:54.898]I was held by his bondsman
[00:56.847]As I left by the gate
[01:00.626]Saying stand or I shoot
[01:03.786]On your head your own fate
[01:08.013]You have robbed of my master
[01:11.072]His wine and his bread
[01:15.272]And the fruit of your folly
[01:18.232]Be on your own head
[01:25.901]I was hungry I cried
[01:28.151]And what harm did I do
[01:32.121]For your master has more
[01:34.991]Than he ever will use
[01:39.471]And I have no money
[01:42.251]Like he has to hand
[01:46.561]Condemned by the law
[01:48.920]They have stolen my land
[01:57.190]He listened in silence
[01:59.390]But he paid me no heed
[02:03.170]And no point in my pleading
[02:06.429]Would he ever concede
[02:10.209]So before judge and jury
[02:13.329]To pay for my crime
[02:17.468]And to hope in their wisdom
[02:20.208]Some pity they'd find
[02:28.187]The judge found me guilty
[02:30.127]In all points of law
[02:34.037]And vile implications
[02:37.057]From my case did draw
[02:41.347]He called me a rebel
[02:44.087]And then did conclude
[02:48.347]He sentenced me
[02:50.127]Seven long years servitude
[02:58.877]And now I'm a prisoner
[03:01.007]Though I know not why
[03:05.237]In royal detention
[03:08.027]Till the queens peace I buy
[03:11.936]But no more I'll be told
[03:14.805]I'm unbonded and free
[03:19.145]And when I am discharged
[03:21.955]A rebel I'll be
