THE JOLLY EXECUTIONER - The Rumjacks

Текст Пісні

слова на вивчення

It said his blade weighed half a tonne,

O’ Spanish steel, Christ how it shone,

With a whistle & thump yer dash were done,

And the axe cared not for who you were,

He kept a cell below the tower,

Where he signed the cross every half an hour,

With a calf skin drum & a rattle tat taa,

The Jolly Executioner.

He had a son, a drunken sailor,

Coulda been a Tinker, Tyke, or tailor,

Sailed away to far Australia,

To be the executioner,

His rope were short, his knots were tight,

He’d plait the hemp by candle light,
