"Llewellyn" lyrics - NEW RIDERS OF THE PURPLE SAGE

This is the story of the war 1282
King Edward the First, the death of Llewellyn too
Each man looked different from afar
But in their hearts you know they bore the same scars

And it was go down, go down, down where the devil is fighting
Strangest thing I've ever seen
It was go down, go down, down where the devil is fighting
Strangest thing I've ever seen

In September, Edward moved up to the [baird]
His forces stronger every day
Llewellyn then turned soutward bound
His forces lay upon the ground

Soon thereafter a message came
The spirit of Llewellyn heaven claimed
His fight for freedom and his name
The legend of Llewellyn still remains

Strangest thing I've ever seen
Strangest thing I've ever seen
