Now gather round and hear the song of good old Jack the Lad
This slippery son ensnared by none, he never could be had
Four times they tried to lock him up, four times he did escape
His reputation flourished every time he got away, they named him

The sound of bars and timbers breaking woke the folk around
Still clapped in irons, he went and joined the crowd
Watching his own escape, he pointed to the clouds and shouted

He broke his chains and crawled up through the chapel's holy floor
And then he burst his way through six or seven mighty doors
Just as if to spite them, he went back down to his hold
To grab himself a blanket to protect him from the cold
He was a cunning, quick and crafty, captivating little con
A sneaky, sleazy sinner who'd confess he did no wrong
Well connected, discontented when put under key and lock.
He said I am the shepherd, and the gaolers are my flock, I am a
