our 3rd track we had written. Written on the 2nd rehearsal - 5th January 2016.
lyrics
[Verse 1]:
The sun had risen over the town that fateful morn'
The clouds were drowning out, so only the occasional ray of light shun through
Tommy the blue gathered all the folks from the village to the statue
Where moments later, Maggie begged for her life and only one thing could be said...
[Chorus]:
Hang Em High!
Gather Round!
[Verse 2]:
He threw the pistol down in front of her
It cluttered along the ground like a juggernaut through a wall
The smell of death was thick in the air
And he uttered those words, where only one thing was thought
[Chorus]
[Bridge 1]:
Dear Maggie
Take this gun
Dear Maggie
Shoot your son
Dear Maggie
Take this gun
Dear Maggie
Go on and kill your son
No!
Yeah!
[Verse 3]:
The crowd was still and silent
As tears streamed down Maggie's face
The crows circled above expectant of the nourishment that always follows in Tommy
Maggie's fingers trembled on the gun
As she pointed the weapon at her son only one thing could be thought
[Chorus]:
[Bridge 1]:
[Bridge 2]:
Swooping down upon your town
His teeth are bared, he's got you scared
For your sins you reap within
Take care my dear, you've much to fear
