Lynchin' Party 歌詞

Lynchin' Party - Bobby Bare

The Lynch mob gathered in

The square across from the jail

 

Young Billy watched them

From his cell and felt his courage fail

 

Bill swore he wasn't guilty

But the evidence was plain

 

Tomorrow he would go on

Trial for killing Mary Jane

 

They shouted beat the prisoner hardy

We're gonna have a Lynchin' party

Gonna hang him high

Watch him die for killing Mary Jane

 

The mob is closer to the jail excitement all around

 

The deputies kept moving

Back afraid to hold their ground

 

Then the young girl cried you

Cowards but the Lynch mob searched ahead

Dragged young Billy from

That jail and soon the kid was dead

 

They shouted beat the prisoner hardy

We're gonna have a Lynchin' party

Gonna hang him high

Watch him die for killing Mary Jane

 

The weeks went by and no

One spoke about it anymore

Or seemed to see the wreath

Bill's mother hung upon the door

Then one night they dragged

A ragged hobo from a train

 

And he confessed he was the

One who killed young Mary Jane

 

They shouted beat the prisoner hardy

We're gonna have a Lynchin' party

Gonna hang him high

Watch him die for killing Mary Jane

Gonna hang him high

Watch him die for killing Mary Jane

Gonna hang him high

 

Watch him die for killing Mary Jane
