The Bonfire Carol

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 marish, 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 burns 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 burn as martyrs for a paltry plot
 They burn for those that'll ne'er be forgot
 Judas, Judas
 They burn for treason in the king's country
 As they burn for Our Lord high on Calvary
 Burn burn Judas, burn slow (burn burn burn)
 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
