Your houses they pull down, stand up now, stand up now,

Your houses they pull down, stand up now;

Your houses they pull down to fright poor men in town,

But the Gentry must come down, and the poor shall wear the crown.

Stand up now, Diggers all!

With spades, and hoes, and plowes, stand up now, stand up now,

With spades, and hoes, and plowes, stand up now;

Your freedom to uphold, seeing Cavaliers are bold

To kill you if they could, and rights from you withhold.

Stand up now, Diggers all!
