Hang Me Higher Songtext
von Falout

♪
Hung up in the midday′s sun
I show the outlaws' fate
A hundred sins committed
Executed by their hate
The masses tried to put me down
When they pulled me up a tree
As they read the verdict paper
Two men hang next to me


Little do they know our sinful kind will ride on to be free
♪
Hang me higher
Hang us higher
Hang me higher
Hang us higher
Hang me higher
♪
Tarred, feathered, caught and shot
Judged to burn alive
Trampled under foot
Disfiguring my life
Punishment and agony
Torturing all night
Buried alive in harmony
Fear the gallows height

Little do they know our sinful kind will find its way towards the light
♪
Chop off my head, see me grow two
There′s not a single thing you can do
Chop off my head and see me grow two
There's not a single thing you can do

Nail me down a cross
On the remains of what I've burned
Put to death, hammered down
But now the page has turned
Nail me down a cross
On the remains of what I′ve burned
Put to death, hammered down
But now the page has turned


Hang me higher
Hang me higher
Hang me higher
Hang me higher
Hang me higher
♪
Higher, higher, higher, higher
