Well they're setting up the gallows
They're setting up a scene
And nothing brings me down as much
As you not being with me
And if I can barely stand up
On my own two feet
Then the last thing on my mind will be you
My darling
Now, the crowd is starting to gather
As I raise my head
They're all looking upon me
Waiting for me to be dead
Am I the next wonder that must be seen
Waiting for the noose to be around my neck
And my feet dangling
Now, the man has come up
And he asks me to speak
Choosing my last words
Were my last memory
And if I can't see you again, so God help me please
I'll see you in the next life
My darling
