Cade's Rebellion
My brothers the time was nigh
On Blackheath field I tell no lie
To London town they did go
Their anger to the King to show
Corruption they tried to destroy
A fair complaint they did employ
In Suffolk's death they had no role
I swear it upon my very soul
My brothers do you recall
On Blackheath the men of Kent I saw
To London town they did go
Their anger to the King to show
By evil counsel a King was surrounded
Of his detriment they were confounded
The Duke of York of blood so royal
In exile though he was so loyal
My brothers they did fight
On Blackheath field they did unite
To London town they did go
Their anger to the King to show
Was he John Mortimer or Jack Cade
The heads of his victims they did parade
Striking a knife on the London stone
No mercy to a sheriff shown
My brothers they did fight
On Blackheath field they did unite
To London town they did go
Their anger to the King to show
On Blackheath field I tell no lie
To London town they did go
Their anger to the King to show
Corruption they tried to destroy
A fair complaint they did employ
In Suffolk's death they had no role
I swear it upon my very soul
My brothers do you recall
On Blackheath the men of Kent I saw
To London town they did go
Their anger to the King to show
By evil counsel a King was surrounded
Of his detriment they were confounded
The Duke of York of blood so royal
In exile though he was so loyal
My brothers they did fight
On Blackheath field they did unite
To London town they did go
Their anger to the King to show
Was he John Mortimer or Jack Cade
The heads of his victims they did parade
Striking a knife on the London stone
No mercy to a sheriff shown
My brothers they did fight
On Blackheath field they did unite
To London town they did go
Their anger to the King to show
