lyrics

Amen the preacher said
time is short you'll soon be dead
no mercy for your soul
you'll swing from the gallows pole

Stand at the judgement seat
to a place beneath my feet
the time is here and now
pay the price the law demands

Swing for the hangman
I dance on the gallows pole
swing for the hangman
death comes to claim my soul

The noose so tight around my neck
a moment caught between a life and death
my life will fade like the setting sun
pull the rope and my life is done

Kick in time the funeral drum
dared the drop the time has come
icy fingers on my mind
carry me to the other side

Swing for the hangman
I dance on the gallows pole
swing for the hangman
death comes to claim my soul

Eye for eye and tooth for tooth
a life is taken in its youth
close my eyes and curse the sky
swear an oath and wait to die
