Lay Down and Die, Goodbye

Well, I pray in my final hour

For the people who yet must die

For the liars and the robbers

And the cheating crimes

Who tortured the deadly timesWell, I've written home to mother

The ink ran from my tears

I said, "Momma, momma, oh please

Tell me why you've brought me here"Well, I'll hang on another minute

But really I have to go

If you ever want to see me again

You know what you can doWell, I've written home to mother

The ink ran from my tears

I said, "Momma, momma, oh please

Tell me why you've brought me here"
