No more chant your old rhymes about old Robin Hood His feats I do little admire I'll sing the achievements of General Ludd Now the hero of Nottingham Shire Those engines of mischief were sentenced to die By unanimous vote of the trade And Ludd who cannot a position defy Was the grand executioner made Whether guarded by soldiers along the highway Or closely secured in a room He shivers them up by night and by day And nothing can soften their doom Shall the whole team of humble no longer oppressed And shall Ludd sheath his conquering sword Be his grievance instantly met with redress Than peace shall be quickly restored Let the wise and the great lend their aid and advice Never ere their assistance withdraw Till full-fashioned work at the old-fashioned price Is established by custom and law
