Nellie McKay - Bold Marauder lyrics

It's hi, ho, hey i am the bold marauder
And hi, ho, hey i am the white destroyer

For I will show you silver and gold
And I will bring you treasure
I will wave a widowing flag
And I will be your lover
And I will show you grotto and cave
And sacrificial alter
And I will show you blood on the stone
And I will be your mentor and night
Will be our darling
And fear will be
Our name it's hi, ho, hey
I am the bold marauder and hi, ho, hey
I am the white destroyer

For I will take you out by the hand
And lead you to the hunter
And I will show you thunder and steel
And I will be your teacher
And we will dress in helmet and sword
And dip our tongues in slaughter
And we will sing a warrior's song
And lift the praise of murder
And Christ will be our darling
And fear will be our name

It's hi, ho, hey i am the bold marauder
And hi, ho, hey i am the white destroyer

For I will sour the winds on high
And I will soil the river
And I will burn the grain in the field
And I will be your mother
And I will go to ravage and kill
And I will go to plunder
And I will take a Fury to wife
And I will be your father
And death will be our darling
And fear will be our name
