Kishore Kumar Hits — Blind Lemon Jefferson - Hangman´s Blues şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Blind Lemon Jefferson

albüm: Legend

Hangman's rope is, honey, so tough and strong
Now, the hangman's rope is sure tough and strong
They're goin' to hang me because I done something wrong
I wanna tell you the gallows, Lord's a fearful sight
I wanna tell you the gallows, Lord's a fearful sight
Hang me in the mornin' and cut me down at night
Well, a mean old hangman, he is waitin' to tighten up that noose
I said, mean old hangman, waitin' to tighten up that noose
Lord, I'm so scared, I am tremblin' in my shoes
Jury heard my case and they said my hand was red
Jurymen heard my case and said my hand was red
And judge he sentenced me, be hangin' 'til I'm dead
The crowd 'round the courthouse, and the time is drawin' fast
And the crowd 'round the courthouse, and the time is drawin' fast
Soon a good-for-nothin' killer is goin' to breathe his last
Lord, I'm almost dyin', gaspin' for my breath
Lord, I'm almost dyin', gaspin' for my breath
And that triflin' woman drinkin' to celebrate my death
