    Lyrics

    They cross the marsh in the dead of night

    Through secret passages hidden ways

    Silhouettes caught in the pale moonlight

    Bringing in goods for a crime that pays

    If you hear them passing by

    Not a word to the excise man

    Take care not to catch their eye

    As they hide from the laws of the land


    A magistrate lives in the nearby town

    His judgements stand and must be obeyed

    He turns a blind eye as the deals go down

    Made his money in the sugar trade

    The owner of a big plantation

    Till the trafficking trade was banned

    Made a fortune in compensation

    Now he delivers the laws of the land


    Cover your tracks and leave no trace

    Keep your head down and know your place

    The ways of the world are hard and cruel

    Keep your own counsel

    Be nobody's fool


    In court today is a serving maid

    Who stole some bread to feed a hungry man

    A year in jail for the time she strayed

    She could have been sent to Van Diemen's Land

    People of every station

    All living on shifting sand

    And who makes the determination

    Win or lose by the laws of the land


    Cover your tracks and leave no trace

    Keep your head down and know your place

    The ways of the world are hard and cruel

    Keep your own counsel

    Be nobody's fool
