Oh, little Ripper Boy, where did you go?
Where did you run when
They burned your home?
What did you say when
They took your soul?
Poor little Ripper Boy, all alone
Still in the darkness
Blind in the light
Roll up the day and turn into night
Run at the sound of the siren's call
To a watery grave where
You'll find them all
Tear up the anger, swallow the hate
And fight with the bastard
That they call fate
You know pretty soon you'll run away
To a place where there's
Never another day
Oh, little Ripper Boy, where did you go?
Where did you run when
They burned your home?
What did you say when
They took your soul?
Poor little Ripper Boy, all alone
Oh, little Ripper Boy, let me know
If you're with us, then tell me so
Give me an answer: Yes or no?
Poor little Ripper Boy, all alone
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Live in the darkness, kill off the light
Run from the day and rest in the night
Signal the sound of the siren's call
So you'll burn the grave
Where you found them all
Live with the anger, deal with the hate
Kneel down to the master
That they call fate
You know pretty soon you'll come to stay
In a place where there's
Never another day
Oh little Ripper Boy, where did you go?
Where did you run when
They burned your home?
What did you say when
They took your soul?
Poor little Ripper Boy, all alone
Oh little Ripper Boy, let me know
If you're with us, then tell me so
Give me an answer: Yes or no?
Poor little Ripper Boy, all alone
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Poor little Ripper, don't worry, I know
Everything's gone but
The marks still show
They're far away, six feet below
And the poor little Ripper Boy has to go
Oh, little Ripper Boy, where did you go?
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Oh little Ripper Boy, all alone
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Oh little Ripper Boy, where did you go?
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Oh little Ripper Boy, all alone
Hallelujah, hallelujah
