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 |
