about

Our original song about the Pendle Witches

lyrics

Tumbledown shack which the wind makes creak
On a bare dirt floor where the demons sleep
Within blackened walls round the fire they keep
The witches speak....

Wind clems you to your bones and sylin all the way
Hoping spelks on sticks since daylight gate
Chanced upon a pedlar on Trawden Head
Unwrap your bale for pins but away he fled..

John Law curse you dead!

For the sisters of the old ways charms and healing
Took the cursed notes in ink and quill
Damned by folk for the fate they're sealing
Witches on the moor be wardin still..... on Pendle Hill

Wither shall we go and wither shall we stay
In the Malkin Tower where the witches say
Meeting with the mutton by the fire bones shed
Score of witches gathering by the Demdike's bed..

John Law lay down dead!

Sisters of old wisdom bitter feeling
Heard the cursed tales just nine years still
Damned by hate for the charms they're dealing
Witches on the moor be wardin still..... on Pendle Hill

The chatterings of a babe and the stories that she say
In the Lancashire Court where we'll end our days
Nine years young and taught to said
Jennet sings for Roger on the tales she's fed...

John Law now we're dead!

Women with their demons nought to seeing
Heard the cursed tales caused pedlar ill
Damned by folk for the life they're leaning
Witches on the moor be wardin still..

Women with their demons nought to seeing
Heard the cursed tales caused pedlar ill
Damned by folk for the life they're leaning
Witches on the moor be wardin still.....

On Pendle Hill
