Farewell to my family, it's now I must leave you
That far fatal shore in chains we shall see
Although we are taken, do not be mistaken
As brothers in union, we shall be free

They can bring down our wages
Starve all our children.
In chains they can bind us steal all our land.
They can mock our religion
From our families divide us
But they can't break the oath of a Tolpuddle man

To those who rule us we are the dissenters;
Do your duty, be grateful, don't complain we are taught.
For God in His wisdom has divided this kingdom
For few to have much while so many have naught:

They can bring down our wages
Starve all our children.
In chains they can bind us steal all our land.
They can mock our religion
From our families divide us
But they can't break the oath of a Tolpuddle man

As brothers together with an oath we will bind us
The labouring man in all England shall rise
Though Frampton has framed us, they never will tame us
Arise men of Brittain; we'll yet win the prize

They can bring down our wages
Starve all our children.
In chains they can bind us steal all our land.
They can mock our religion
From our families divide us
But they can't break the oath of a Tolpuddle man
No they can’t break the oath of a Tolpuddle man
