The Lynchin' Party |
The Lynch mob gathered in the square across from the jail |
Young Billy watched them from his cell and felt his courage fail |
Bill swore he wasn’t guilty but the evidence was plain |
Tomorrow he would go on trial for killing Mary Jane |
They shouted beat the prisoner hardy we’re gonna have a Lynchin' party |
Gonna hang him high watch him die for killing Mary Jane |
The mob is closer to the jail excitement all around |
The deputies kept moving back afraid to hold their ground |
Then the young girl cried you cowards but the Lynch mob searched ahead |
Dragged young Billy from that jail and soon the kid was dead |
They shouted beat the prisoner hardy… |
The weeks went by and no one spoke about it anymore |
Or seemed to see the wreath Bill’s mother hung upon the door |
Then one night they dragged a ragged hobo from a train |
And he confessed he was the one who killed young Mary Jane |
They shouted beat the prisoner hardy… |
Gonna hang him high watch him die for killing Mary Jane |
