It's almost over it's almost done

Maid Marian and all the gang

His aim was mean and his shot was clean
G A7
And his suit was the sheen of the evergreen

The folks he knew had naught to fear

When the sheriff was there, they were over here

He loved strong ale and a rundown jail

Who could get Maid Marian on the trail

And you can't put the blame on Marion

She almost made it to the Friar's Gate
G A7
But the old wooden bridge wouldn't elevate
[CHORUS:]
