《Tim Evans》歌词

[00:00:00] Tim Evans - Judy Collins

[00:00:04] Tim Evans was a prisoner within his prison cell

[00:00:10] And those who read about his crime

[00:00:12] They d**ned his soul to hell

[00:00:14] Saying go down you murderer go down

[00:00:21] For the murder of his own dear wife

[00:00:23] And the killing of his child

[00:00:26] The jury found him guilty and the

[00:00:28] Hanging judge he smiled

[00:00:30] Saying go down you murderer go down

[00:00:36] Tim Evans pleaded innocent and

[00:00:38] Swore by him on high

[00:00:40] He never killed his own dear

[00:00:43] Wife or house his child to die

[00:00:45] Saying go down you murderer go down

[00:00:50] They moved him out at 6 o'clock

[00:00:53] To his final flowery dell

[00:00:55] And day and night two guards

[00:00:57] Were there and never left his cell

[00:01:00] Saying go down you murderer go down

[00:01:06] Sometimes they played cards

[00:01:07] With him solo and pontoon

[00:01:10] To stop him brooding on the rope

[00:01:13] That was to be his doom

[00:01:15] Saying go down you murderer go down

[00:01:20] The governor came in one day

[00:01:23] With a chaplain by his side

[00:01:25] Said your appeal has been turned

[00:01:27] Down prepare yourself to die

[00:01:30] Saying go down you murderer go down

[00:01:35] Tim Evans walked in the prison yourd

[00:01:38] Guards walked behind

[00:01:41] He saw the sky above the wall

[00:01:44] And knew no peace of mind

[00:01:47] Saying go down you murderer go down

[00:01:52] They fixed the rope around his

[00:01:54] Neck buckled behind his ears

[00:01:58] The prison bell was tolling but

[00:02:01] Tim Evans did not hear

[00:02:03] Saying go down you murderer go down

[00:02:09] A thousand men were cursing

[00:02:11] And banging on their doors

[00:02:14] But Tim Evans did not hear them

[00:02:16] He was deaf for evermore

[00:02:20] Saying go down you murderer go down

[00:02:27] They sent Tim Evans to the drop

[00:02:29] For a crime he didn't do

[00:02:32] To was christie was the murderer

[00:02:35] The judge and jury too

[00:02:40] Saying go down you murderer go down
