Slow down you grave robbing [bad word] Stop right there i hear the constable scream
Slow down you grave robbing [bad word] If they think they’re gonna catch me
They’re all in a dream

Digging in the graveyard, late at night,
I need to boil up the bones
crowd of locals heading my way
Why can’t they leave me alone
(they’re all shouting at me)

Slow down you grave robbing [bad word] Stop right there i hear the constable scream
Slow down you grave robbing [bad word] If they think they’re gonna catch me
They’re all in a dream

Can’t a poor boy work in peace
I need to make me a shilling
I sell my wares to the doctors in town
They couldn’t be more willing

Slow down you grave robbing [bad word] Stop right there i hear the constable scream
Slow down you grave robbing [bad word] If they think they’re gonna catch me
They’re all in a dream

(mid viii) pick up my shovel [bad word] No time to act tough [bad word] fast
But the long arm of the law ain’t long enough
(so he’s shouting at me)

Slow down you grave robbing [bad word] Stop right there i hear the constable scream
Slow down you grave robbing [bad word] If they think they’re gonna catch me
They’re all in a dream

Solo

Dead is dead, but coin is coin,
And now it’s [bad word] down with rain
I don’t know what all the fuss is about,
You don’t hear the [bad word] 
Slow down you grave robbing [bad word] Stop right there i hear the constable scream
Slow down you grave robbing [bad word] If they think they’re gonna catch me
They’re all in a dream

Slow down you grave robbing [bad word] Stop right there i hear the constable scream
Slow down you grave robbing [bad word] If they think they’re gonna catch me
They’re all in a dream

Slow down you grave robbing [bad word] Stop right there i hear the constable scream
Slow down you grave robbing [bad word] If they think they’re gonna catch me
They’re all in a dream
