Guy of Gisbourne. John Vehon, 1992

I am Guy of Gisbourne
I'm vicious and mean
Been sent by the Sheriff
To the dark Sherwood green
I am evil to the core
I've had many victims
But now I've responded
To the Sheriff's ediction
Oh where are you Robin Hood
I'm coming for you
Your head will be rolling
By the time I am through

Guy of Gisbourne
Guy of Gisbourne
He's a very bad guy

Oh hey there tall stranger
You're a sight for sore eyes
Wearing horse hair and ears
That stick up to the sky
I am a forest ranger
I never have seen
Oh such a pretty fellow
In the bright Sherwood green
So you're looking for Robin Hood
Gonna pay him his due
Yes I know him very well
He would like to meet you

Guy of Gisbourne
Guy of Gisbourne
He's a terrible guy

Oh the Sheriff of Nottingham
Was at his wit's end
Been tricked by that Robin Hood
Again and again
It was a matter of manly demonstration
To send a message to the whole English nation
And the King

You are a brave lad
With a right saucy tongue
I've never met another man
Who would speak as you've done
But beware there's an end
To the patience I have
As many men have found
I can be very bad
Oh where is that Robin Hood
His fate has arrived
If you see him better tell him
Get ready to die, yie yie

Guy of Gisbourne
Guy of Gisbourne
He's a dangerous guy

Well the two met that day
In a terrible fight
With the crashing of swords
Going into the night
And Robin was weak
And his blood spilling down
But at last there was Guy
Lying dead on the ground
Oh I am that Robin Hood
You came here to find
Spread the word through the kingdom
That your head is mine, oh yeah

Guy of Gisbourne
Guy of Gisbourne
He's a ghost in the sky
