Full version of "Taker's Creed" on YouTube (banjo hobbies) - C C - Oct 23, 2025
These might be the official words of the song. Every online attempt to transcribe them seems to hear it a slightly different way (though it's retroactively obvious once finally presented with the lyric). An old interview with Morgan O'Kane is here.

That old north wind
Is blowin' in again
With it comes a long winters freeze
The hand is forced
The family's dug in
The runners of the storm on parade
The fools will be brought to their knees
The takers creed
It's an ancient league
Down by the hollow pit they'll sneak
They'll ransom the land
Until the day is long
The sun, dirt, and the blood
The sun, dirt, and the blood
The dawns up
Theres fire on the mountain
They'll have to answer for their crooked claim
The hollows they'll surround them
And they'll go running back to the wretched realm they came
Nor will the dogs of hell refrain
And the land will suffer those who came
