TEN BLACK CROWS LYRICS:
Ten black crows circling overhead
Noose around his neck
"Any last requests?"
Ten black crows circling overhead
"Any final words?"
Is what the hangman says
Airline road, no town for miles
That iron horse, she'd ride, filling the air with her cries
'Til hell came down in a cloud of dust
Ain't no way to run from a quick shot with a loaded gun
And he stood and watched the sky run red
"God help you now", he said
As ten black crows circled overhead,
Single bullet left,
"Any last requests?"
Ten black crows circled overhead,
"Any final words?"
Is what the gunman said
A trail of gold ain't hard to follow
Can't hide among the willows
With your name on their tongues, face on each town-post
And though his hand was quick to the trigger
The odds, they paid no favors
Ten guns around, so he laid his down
And stood and watched the sky run red
"God help you now", they said
As ten black crows circled overhead,
Single bullet left
"Any last requests?"
Ten black crows circled overhead
"Any final words?"
Is what the townsmen said
"Take him down to the hangman's tree
Hell's what he brings, that's where he'll be
Take him down to the hangman's tree
Oh, take him down"
Take him down to the hangman's tree (ten black crows)
Hell's what he brings, that's where he'll be (circling overhead)
Take him down to the hangman's tree (ten black crows)
Oh, take him down (circling over)
Take him down (ten black crows)
Oh, take him down
Ten black crows, circling overhead
Noose around his neck,
"Any last requests?"
Ten black crows circling overhead
"Any final words?",
Is what the hangman says
