---

I was named in the light of the seven

I denounced them all

I have no taste for the lords and their courts and quarrels

It ain't where I belong

[Chorus]

I am no lamb

I obey my commands

Forsaking my home and my land

I do as I please

Cutting throats and spilling seed

I live for one and that one is me

Wine skins, bed sheets, battle and bloody meat

Keep your plights and your petty schemes

Sellsword? Turncloak? Oh no, that will not do...

You may call me the Hedgeking

[Verse]

Ramblin' mercenary roamin' round these seven kingdoms

And past the narrow sea

Take maiden heads down to bed atop furs and skins

Winning gold and glory

[Chorus]

I aim to win

Felling foes on battlefields

No man can match my steel

Hammers and whores, no more petitioning

Mine is the fury

Banners and thrones, done with the likes of those

Ruling isn't what it seems

More meat and mead is all I really need

This is the life for a Hedgeking

Ride hard, live free

Nowhere else I'd rather be

I'll gladly go where the winds will take me

Fearing nothing, deftly moving with the rising sun and the paths that fate brings

Live! Eat! Fight! Drink!

Necessities for a man to be happy

Bare steel, bare breasts, fresh meat, ale kegs

Horseback with lance

Living my days pleasurably

The fairest maids in the land adore me

And they call me the Hedgeking
