Dm C
On Hounslow Heath as I rode o'er
Dm C
I spied a lawyer riding before
F C
Kind Sir says he Aren't you afraid
Dm C
Of Turpin that mischievous blade
Dm C
Oh rare Turpin hero
Dm C Dm
Oh rare Turpin oh
Dm C
Said Turpin he'll never find me out
Dm C
I'll hid him my money in my boot
F C
Oh said the lawyer he'll never find me gold
Dm C
For it's stitched in my cape behind
Dm C
Oh rare Turpin hero
Dm C Dm
Oh rare Turpin oh
Dm C
As they rode down by the powder mill
Dm C
Turpin commands him to be still
F C
He said Your cape I must cut off
Dm C
For my mare she needs a saddle cloth
Dm C
Oh rare Turpin hero
Dm C Dm
Oh rare Turpin oh
Dm C
As turpin rode in search of prey
Dm C
He met an excise man on his way
F C
And boldly he did bid him stand
Dm C
Gold he said I do demand
Dm C
Oh rare Turpin hero
Dm C Dm
Oh rare Turpin oh
Dm C
And Turpin quite without remorse
Dm C
Soon knocked him quite from off his horse
F C
And left him on the ground to spall
Dm C
Rode off with his gold and all
Dm C
Oh rare Turpin hero
Dm C Dm
Oh rare Turpin oh
Dm C
Now Turpin is condemned to die
Dm C
To hang upon the gallows high
F C
His legacy is a strong rope
Dm C
For the shooting of a dung-hill cock (in other versions: Turpin hero there's no hope)
Dm C
Oh rare Turpin hero
Dm C Dm
Oh rare Turpin oh
