If They Hang You lyrics

In the early days I would say Tell me about the girl who used to live across the way Out on a drunk Down in the bay No idea you'd ever live as long as you did She lay on your bed cold in your arms Wishing she could be somewhere else Maybe that same night I would say So you're stubborn about the girls Footsteps on the stairs late in the morning Behind the blinds that shun the noon day light Staring at the page burnin' midnight oil If they hang you I'll have a few sleepless nights At the witch-trial you would not reveal The names of comrades that you never knew Bad diseases Kill or cure always like a man who says what's on his mind
