Jane Grey Songtext
von Maz O’Connor

Some call me a lady and some call me a queen
Oh Lord, oh Lord, have mercy
A mistress and a martyr and all things in between
Oh Lord, have mercy on me
They took me from my praying, they took me from my books
Oh Lord, oh Lord, have mercy
And search me up and down now with murder in their looks
Oh Lord, have mercy on me

Take this name from beside me
Let them see only what they can see
Glorious, treacherous lady
These names, these words are not me


They′ll sit me on their throne, then hang me from their rope
Oh Lord, oh Lord, have mercy
And cut into my tongue to find words I never spoke
Oh Lord, have mercy on me
And when they lay me in the ground
They will say only one thing
Oh Lord, oh Lord, have mercy
It's a grave mistake to be cousin to a king
Oh Lord, have mercy on me

Take this name from beside me
Let them see only what they can see
Glorious, treacherous lady
These names, these words are not me

These names, these words are not me
Lord, have mercy
Lord, have mercy
Lord, have mercy
Lord, have mercy
Lord, have mercy
Lord, have mercy on me
