Lyrics

So, together they set off for the Holy Land Robin Hood and Gisborne, sword in hand But soon it was clear from the horrors of that place It was all about the money, and not God's loving embrace But on the road back home from Jerusalem Robin fell into a trap He was left for dead by Gisborne's men And he won't be coming back Who would want to see him dead? (His friend, Guy of Gisborne) Why would he want to see him gone? (He wants to take his place) Why would he want to see him dead? Guy of Gisborne is his friend (He's no friend, he's the man with the double face) He's the man with the double face And when Gisborne returned to England's shores To be Sheriff of Nottingham was his reward And he tried everything to win Marian's hand But she wanted no time with this odious man For his dream was to be Earl of Huntingdon With Marian there by his side And though Robin was gone, she would not agree No matter how he tried And as they stood there before the memorial stone Saying Robin of Locksley is dead A stranger appeared in his raggedy clothes And this is what he said Who would want to see me dead? (Your friend Guy of Gisborne) Why would he want to see me gone? (He wants to take your place) Why would he want to see me dead? Guy of Gisborne is my friend (He's no friend, he's the man with the double face) He's the man with the double face He's the man with the double face He's the man with the double face He's the man with the double face He's the man with the double face
