lirik lagu steeleye span - they called her babylon
to the halls of latham house the king he did proclaim
that the seventh earl of derby, james stanley was his name,
should resist the scottish force bound for the isle of man,
so he gathered up his fighters and obeyed the king’s command.
the countess was of n-ble blood, though not of royalty,
yet brave and as intrepid as any man was she.
so the house became a fortress, with her good lord now gone.
her name was lady charlotte but they called her babylon.
[chorus:] so put yourselves in line against babylon.
all ye that bend the bow against the crown.
and train the gunner’s sights against babylon
till the eagle tower does fall and the walls they are thrown down.
both the puritans and fairfax, together they did call
for this one last royal stronghold in lancashire to fall.
so the garrison she strenghtened and the eagle tower was manned
and refusing all conditions, it was then the siege began.
[chorus]
twas in two good months when those rebels did retreat
they were cast out from the earthworks and driven to defeat.
with dishonour and in shame their siege came to an end,
they were routed by a lady and two hundred loyal men.
[chorus]
