Chris de Burgh - Treasure And Betrayal

It was on the trail of riches, we set off upon that day
To the Castle keep of Carisbrooke, to where the treasure lay
And soon I found the diamond, at the bottom of the well
But that traitor of a Turnkey, to his death below he fell

“Have a care, have a care
It was evilly come by and no good will you find there
Have a care, have a care
It was evilly stolen, only pain and sorrow there, have a care”

Then across the sea to Holland, with the jewel in my hand
Where we went to sell our treasure, at the house of Aldebrand
When he said it was no diamond, through the window it was tossed
But that wicked man was lying and we were caught in a double-cross “Have a care, have a care
It was evilly come by and no good will you find there
Have a care, have a care
It was evilly stolen, only pain and sorrow there, have a care”

“What shall we do with the boy who’s stealing
What shall we do with the boy who’s stealing
What shall we do with the boy who’s stealing, early in the morning”

Throw him into jail let him rot forever
Throw him into jail let him rot forever
Throw him into jail let him rot forever, early in the morning”

“Have a care, have a care
T’was evilly come by and no good will you find there
Have a care, have a care
T’was evilly stolen, only pain and sorrow there, have a care”
