Son of Sherwood

Son of Sherwood.

Robin the Hood – fine with a bow

tis Sheriff of Nottingham’s greatest foe.

.

Driven from dwelling – out of sight,

deep into Sherwood – morning till night.

.

His men & he – steal riches by force

from well to do travellers – to return to its source.

.

Peasants are proud of their outlawed son

as taxes are high & benefits none.

.

Price on his head to buy food for a year,

yet ask of a hideout no-one will hear.

.

With mind of cunning & heart of pure,

our Robin be a legend in days I’m sure.
