Hold still
Donæ?° move I say
Wilt thou hear
My elegy

Head high
Preserve my pride
I shall defy the gallows

I and you and me
Well we just donæ?° know
What love can do

I
I pledge to you
That I wonæ?° deceive
The heart thatæ?¯ mine
As here I sit

I vow
Your history does not
Perish my love

The shame
Will be mine for a
Scarlet woman thou art

I and you and me
Well we just donæ?° know
What love can do

I
I pledge to you
That I wonæ?° deceive
The heart thatæ?¯ mine

Dead from the grave
Weæ?®e all slaves
To what weæ?³e got

Love
Is been through
The door
For days
