John was not an evil man Though far from perfect true And he spent his days a rovin' though He'd a wife and daughter too He staggered home one drunken night And paused beneath an oak To warm himself and rest a while He'd move on when he woke And though he'd built a fire to ward Off the evenin' chill The embers slowly died from sight The woods grew cold and still John awoke to a huntsman's horn Joooohn! And the bayin' of some hound Arooooooooooo! I've stumbled in just before the morn' To some noble's hunting ground He saw the hound all pallid white With ears a bloody red And then he saw the Huntsman And John was filled with dread Run for your life John The Wild Hunts comin' Letras de cancionesComin' after thee Run for your life John The hounds are callin' Callin' out to thee Take to the hills Take to the woods Hie through the brambles and see If you can't outrun them Until the morning See if you can't get free Well over hill through forest too Through stream and thorny briar The Huntsman and his hounds kept chasing Never would they tire And John he knew if he could last Until the mornin' light Why he would have outrun them And made it through the night But it was yet some hours until He'd see the mornin' sun And then he heard the hounds again This chase had just begun Run for your life John The Wild Hunts comin' Comin' after thee Run for your life John The hounds are callin' Callin' out to thee Take to the hills Take to the woods Hie through the brambles and see If you can't outrun them Until the morning See if you can't get free John made it back unto his home And saw an awful sight For it was all abandoned O'ergrown in just one night Full twenty years have come and gone since all me drunken days. If I knew then what I know now I'd 've changed my rovin' ways The Huntsman gave a soulless laugh Mwa-ha-ha-haaa John cried, By all good men I'll never let ya have me! Run John! And the chase began again Run for your life John The Wild Hunts comin' Comin' after thee Run for your life John The hounds are callin' Callin' out to thee Take to the hills Take to the woods Hie through the brambles and see If you can't outrun them Until the morning See if you can't get free And if you're there some moonlit night When the woods grow cold and still Why you'll see John the rover They say He runs there Still (slowly, hauntingly) Run for your life John The Wild Hunts comin' Comin' after thee Run for your life John The hounds are callin' Callin' out to thee Take to the hills Take to the woods Hie through the brambles and see If you can't outrun them Until the morning See if you can't get free (at speed) Run for your life John The Wild Hunts comin' Comin' after thee Run for your life John The hounds are callin' Callin' out to thee Take to the hills Take to the woods Hie through the brambles and see If you can't outrun them Until the morning See if you can't get free Run for your life John The Wild Hunt's comin'!
