The Girl On Death Row Lyrics

written by Lee Hazlewood

Her eyes were once so full of dreams

Her young heart filled with love and ...

Now every second she must borrow

They take her life tomorrow

Is she guilty? She says no

The girl on death row

Now someone holds her trembling hand

Another who don't understand

Why can't they see in her face?

Another should be in her place

Is she guilty? She says no

The girl on death row

Her young dreams never will come true

Her innocence they never knew

Until they found the guilty one

They're sorry now what they've done

But it's way too late now

For the girl on death row

Mockin' bird, high in the tree

Looks like you've got the best of me

Mockin' bird, singing a song

Well, mockin' bird is mocking me now that you're gone

Mockin' bird, on top of my roof

Blowin' notes on top of my roof

Mockin' bird singing a song

Well, mockin' bird is mocking me now that you're gone

Mockin' bird, high in the tree

I'm looking up at you, you're looking down at me

Mockin' bird, singing a song

Well, the mockin' bird is mocking me now that you're gone

Throw up some papers, try to scare him away

Look down at me, this what he says. . .

Mockin' bird, high in the tree

Looks like you've got the best of me

Mockin' bird, singing a song

Well, the mockin' bird is mocking me now that you're gone
