RICHARD & MIMI FARINA
"Bold Marauder"

It's hi, ho, hey
I am the bold marauder
And hi, ho, hey
I am a white destroyer

For I will bring you silver and gold
And I will bring you treasure
And I will bring a widowing flag
And I will be your lover

And I will show you grotto and cave
And sacrificial altar
And I will show you blood on the stone
And I will be your mentor
And night will be our darling
And fear will be our name

It's hi, ho, hey
I am the bold marauder
And hi, ho, hey
I am the white destroyer

For I will lead you out by the hand
And lead you to the hunter
And I will show you thunder and steel
And I will be your teacher

Then we will dress in helmet and sword
And dip our tongues in slaughter
And we will sing a warrior's song
And lift the praise of murder
And Christ will be our darling
And fear will be our name

It's hi, ho, hey
I am the bold marauder
And hi, ho, hey
I am the white destroyer

For I will sour the winds on high
And I will soil the river
And I will burn the grain in the field
And I will be your mother
And I will go to ravage and kill
And I will go to plunder
And I will take a Fury to wife
And I will be your father
And death will be our darling
And fear will be our name
