Horses and Hounds

Saddle the horses, release the hounds
The witch in the woods is no longer bound
Hunt her at night and rest in the day
Follow the scent left behind by her prey

Saddle the horses and hounds
No one is safe on the grounds
Pounding their hooves, they will ride
Hounds at their sides they stand guard

She lived among them people in town
Until her neighbors' home had burned down
The witch tried to flee after being exposed
The town people trapped her
Cell door was closed

Saddle the horses and hounds
No one is safe on the grounds
Pounding their hooves, they will ride
Hounds at their sides they stand guard

They stand guard
Homes left charred
Witch has fled
Fear has spread
The people awoke to find she was gone
The church it was burning
Flames burn like dawn
Mounting in haste to stop the witch quick
Distraction was working, a deadly trick

Saddle the horses and hounds
No one is safe on the grounds
Pounding their hooves, they will ride
Hounds at their sides they stand guard
