John Lomas |
| All good people I pray you attend |
| For poor John Lomas his life at an end |
| He was condemned to die. |
| He was a great master, so very kind, |
| But his fair mistress had evil in her mind |
| He was condemned to die. |
| Willingly I took his place |
| With my fair love |
| Willingly I stole his face |
| and soaked it in blood. |
| It was the mistress and the murder for love. |
| This fair mistress found him asleep. |
| It’s time to kill him then my heart you can keep, |
| He was condemned to die. |
| Three times I struck him over his head. |
| It was my first murder, a blood soaken bed, |
| He was condemned to die. |
| Chorus |
| Into my room then I did return, |
| The crime committed, my conscience it did burn, |
| I was condemned to die. |
| In a dark Jailhouse I would remain, |
| For poor John Lomas now it is my name. |
| I am condemned to die. |
| Chorus |
