Bird on A Wire

By the rivers down south
There's gonna be a hangin'
He took the life of another man's wife
The evidence was damning
Let me simplify
Justice will be served
Let no one stand in our way
Let no one be concerned
In his eyes there was no regret
But you could feel the snap of his neck
They had all been friends
The couple and this man
And there was something wrong
With the story at hand
But I was blind with rage
And I was blind with hate
But now I had my doubts
But now it was too late
In his eyes there was no more pain
I think we'll have ourselves a hangin' again
Like a bird on a wire
One day they'll come for me
But I have no fear
I only did what I thought was right
Cast a stone if you dare
And so I stand alone
Before this great debate
But beware my words
As you seal my fate
In my eyes there was no regret
But you could feel the snap of my neck
Like a bird on a wire
In his eyes there was no more pain
I don't think this brid'll fly again
By the rivers down south
They had a bunch of hangings
They took the lives of everyone there
You know it was quite savage
But they were blind with rage
And they were blind with hate
And so I stood alone
Like a bird on a wire
