The Mulligan Brothers - Cecilia şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: The Mulligan Brothers

albüm: The Mulligan Brothers


In the south of Alabamy, near the Gulf of Mexico
On the banks of old Tombigbee
Walks an old, lost forgotten soul
He was once a man of virtue
Sadly less a man of means
Said, Cecilia I won't let them hurt you
I'll set you free, I'll set you free
Cause my love for you is stronger than these plantation walls
It howls at the moon at night
It don't know about the law
And it is at your beg and call
I said, Cecilia don't you cry
By and by, Cecilia don't you cry
She was born into subjection
She was born without a say
He was her first and only revelation
That she might not die that way
I will love you all the seasons
What you want is what I'll be
I'll be your rock, I'll be your reason
Just set me free, Oh just set me free
Cause my heart is so much stronger than these plantation walls
It howls at the moon at night
It don't care about the law
And every night I hear it call
I'll set us free
Cecilia, don't you cry
By and by, Cecilia don't you cry
He had never been inclined to help another man to die
Until the bossman finally wished to leave
With Cecilia at his side, under that dark October sky
They climbed upon their boat and left that man to bleed, bleed
No sooner than the bossman died
His fairy fell out of the sky
A racer's storm was on the hunt they say
And revenge it what a boat
And sank his one and only hope
As he heard Cecilia's cries fading away
In the south of Alabamy, near the Gulf of Mexico
On the banks of old Tombigbee
Walks an old, lost forgotten soul
From those mirky, shallow waters
To the Carribean Sea
You can hear him cry Cecilia come set me free
Oh, come set me free
Cecilia, please come set me free
Come set me free, Come set me free
Cecili, please come set me free
