Hanging Song - Fairport Convention
Wake up John it's time to go Come along John
And don't be slow
Come along John don't be slow Wake up John
It's time to go
Wake up John it's time to go
A priest joins the procession just to help me kneel
With a warder at my elbow and another at my heel
Marching in the morning down a path I've lately seen
I was sleeping in this garden
Am I still within my dream
The echo of my heartbeat is the beating of a drum
And all the earth is singing with life's sweet hum
We filed in solemn silence shuffled through a door
The place where life is taken for the letter of the law
Shake the holy water summon up the guard
Dying's very easy waiting's very hard
A rope was hanging from the roof
A sight which puzzles me
I thought a gibbet and a guard would
Make a gallows tree
But now all is revealed stamped
There is the command
My feet are on the trapdoor with a rope
Around my hand
And now the executioner is shaking hands with me
"My duty I must carry out you poor fellow " says he
A strap is tied around my feet
And a bag upon my head
And then the noose which separates the living
From the dead
Shake the holy water summon up the guard
Dying's very easy waiting's very hard
There he whispers to me "Have you anything to say "
My mouth is dry my throat is tight
I answer "Drop away"
Silence now surrounds me my heart is beating on
The trapdoor hardly moves at all
My life is still my own
They stand me in a corner with my hands
And feet still bound
While a carpenter is called for
And an explanation found
"The rain has warped the timbers "
I hear the hangman say
"It's funny but it worked well I tried it yesterday"
"All is mended now " they say "
Your ordeal's nearly over
Your life's as good as ended "
But I hear their voices waver
Once more the board is shaked
And again I hang in limbo
While the guards jump on the trapdoor
And my body stands on tip-toe
Shake the holy water summon up the guard
Dying's very easy waiting's very hard
They stand me in a corner with my hands
And feet still ties
A warder holds onto the noose
The trapdoor opens wide
Is it magic or coincidence
That keeps me on the brink
It seems to work without me
"Will it kill me now " I think
"Please I'm tired of living and I really want to die"
I was taken to the scaffold
And I heard the hangman cry
"Lee I'm truly sorry forgive these hands of mine"
He drew the bolt and I felt the jolt the third
And final time
My life was spared that morning 'cos
It wasn't theirs to take
Three's the boat the law requires
A man could feel the stake
Shake the holy water summon up the guard
Dying's very easy waiting's very hard
Shake the holy water summon up the guard
Dying's very easy waiting's very hard
Shake the holy water summon up the guard
Dying's very easy waiting's very hard
Shake the holy water summon up the guard
Dying's very easy waiting's very hard
Shake the holy water summon up the guard
Dying's very easy waiting's very hard
