Story behind the song

Lyrics
Coventry Cross... The rib of St Lawrence in silver... An arm of St Catherine too... A barrel of relics for the confessors... And a phial of Our Lady's milk.... And I'm standin' on the shadow of Coventry Cross.... And I'm standin' on the shadow of Coventry Cross.... So many laid low... So many we don't know.... Dick Prince Rupert had it coming... His life was such a spiteful spate... Rebel soldiers instigated Warwick... Prince Edward led a force to the North... Standin' on the shadow of Coventry Cross... Standin' on the shadow of Coventry Cross... So many died there... So many we don't care.... Robert Catesby, late of Lapworth.... Blew up king and parliament... Catholics at the Black Bull on Smithford Street... The White Lyon on Dunchurch... Take Elizabeth,.. Take Elizabeth,.. take her by force... But King John, he got the word... Yeah King John, he got the word.... It was called the bloody hunt of Dunsmore Hill.... They called it the bloody hunt of Dunsmore Hill.... So many died there... So many we don't care... anymore.... They called it the bloody hunt of Dunsmore Hill... They called it the bloody hunt of Dunsmore Hill.... So many laid low.... So many we don't know.... They call it the bloody hunt of Dunsmore Hill... They call it the bloody hunt of Dunsmore Hill.... So many laid low.... So many we don't know.... Henry Lawson called it the motor mill... Mr Boulie's petroleum tricycle 20,000 pounds up in smoke.... I Pulled on a piece of rope Try to destroy the Catholic Church End up in a piece of a dirt... Called it the bloody hunt of Dunsmore Hill... It all happened in the shadow of Coventry Cross... So many laid low... So many we don't know... Vleeds cr 2006 ADF Music G.Hills Calif. USA X2068yb45
