McKay, Nellie - 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

    Whites vs. Reds or Reds vs. Blues or Blues vs. Greys the only difference is how many lie dead on either side.

    +Kirsten Armstrong   I ruined her by shaking her vulnerably-GOD-influenced right hand once-upon-a-time in 2011 upon gratefully meeting her ; my demons are many.   I'll hate it forever; because I'd already (for seven years) loved her forever.  I, now, can only hope she's in HIS hands 'forever'.  She changed my life in countless ways in 2004.
