Lyrics

When villains ramble far and near,
To break the people’s laws,
Their punishment should be severe,
Within the devil’s claws.

When villains ramble far and near,
With their hearts full of sin,
They do much wrong without a fear,
But someday right will win.

We stay close at home,
When villains rambling we can hear,
We have no chance to roam,
When heartless villains are so near.

We dare not sleep at night,
When we have an awful fear,
We keep a brilliant light,
When villains ramble far and near.

When villains ramble far and near,
And cause great alarm,
We wish for them a short career,
Before they do great harm.

When villains ramble far and near,
To treat other people bad,
They should be despatched to the others sphere,
To make old Satan feel glad.

We stay close at home,
When villains rambling we can hear,
We have no chance to roam,
When heartless villains are so near.

We dare not sleep at night,
When we have an awful fear,
We keep a brilliant light,
When villains ramble far and near.
