Down To The Gallows Lyrics

By morning light they came to take me away

Their banners swaying in the wind

Out in the rain they dragged me onto the castle yard

I could hear the mocking of the crowd

If only I could I would go back in time

Then I would undo what I've done

The priest gave me my last rites my final sip of wine

Right before my pending end

A growing fear of dying spreading in my soul

Hell or heaven be my guide

With a noose around my neck and with tears in my eyes

I repented the sins of my past

[Chorus:]

Down to the gallows at the end of a rope

I will die as a sinner I'm going

Down to the gallows where so many have died

They came down the mountains they came down the hills

To see me draw my final breath

Over the rivers over the moors

To see the madman laid to rest

If only I could I would go back in time

Then I would undo what I've done

[Repeat chorus]

The pilgrims riddle is so hard to solve

The answer determines your rise or your fall

Heaven or hell the riddle is for all

The devils dance in brimstone and fire

The angels sing a beckoning call

Heaven or hell the riddle is for all

With a noose around my neck and with tears in my eyes

I repented the sins of my past

[Repeat chorus]
