Lyrics

There were twelve bonfires burning in a field Judas, Judas There was one for Peter, there was one for John Every disciple he had one Judas, Judas There was one for James who died by the sword But the biggest and the best was for our dear Lord Burn, burn, Judas, burn slow Bright, bright, bright for our dear Lord's sake Burn slow for Judas Judas was a red-headed man There was one bonfire standing all alone Judas, Judas Down by the marriage it smoked away It smoked all night and it smoked all day Judas, Judas 'Twas a proper green pother for all to see But the fire burned bright on our dear Lord's tree Burn, burn, Judas, burn slow Bright, bright, bright for our dear Lord's sake Burn slow for Judas Judas was a red-headed man There were three bonfires burning on a hill Judas, Judas They burned as martyrs for a paltry plot They burned for those that'll ne'er be forgot Judas, Judas They burned for treason in the King's country As they burned for our Lord high on Calvary Burn, burn, Judas, burn slow Bright, bright, bright for our dear Lord's sake Burn slow for Judas Judas was a red-headed man There were twelve bonfires burning in a field Judas, Judas There was one for Peter, there was one for John Every disciple he had one Judas, Judas There was one for James who died by the sword But the biggest and the best was for our dear Lord
