ฟังเพลงTim Evans

Tim Evans - Judy Collins

Tim evans was a prisoner within his prison cell

And those who read about his crime they damned his soul to hell

Saying go down you murderer go down

For the murder of his own dear wife and the killing of his child

The jury found him guilty and the hanging judge he smiled

Saying go down you murderer go down

Tim evans pleaded innocent and swore by him on high

He never killed his own dear wife or caused his child to die

Saying go down you murderer go down

They moved him out at 6 o'clock to his final flowery dell

And day and night two guards were there and never left his cell

Saying go down you murderer go down

Sometimes they played cards with him solo and pontoon

To stop him brooding on the rope that was to be his doom

Saying go down you murderer go down

The governor came in one day with a chaplain by his side

Said your appeal has been turned down prepare yourself to die

Saying go down you murderer go down

Tim evans walked in the prison garden the guards walked behind

He saw the sky above the wall and knew no peace of mind

Saying go down you murderer go down

They fixed the rope around his neck buckled behind his ears

The prison bell was tolling but tim evans did not hear

Saying go down you murderer go down

A thousand men were cursing and banging on their doors

But tim evans did not hear them he was deaf for evermore

Saying go down you murderer go down

They sent tim evans to the drop for a crime he didn't do

It was christie was the murderer the judge and jury too

Saying go down you murderer go down
