[00:14.430] It was late last night when the boss came home [00:18.110] To wander early his mansion and a desolate throne [00:21.730] Servant said boss the ladies gone [00:25.030] She left this morning just before dawn [00:32.200] You got something to tell me, tell it to me man [00:35.650] Come to the point as straight as you can [00:39.270] Old henry lee chief of the clan [00:42.730] Came riding through the woods and took her by the hand [00:50.110] The boss he lay back flat on his bed [00:53.350] He cursed the heat and he clutched his head [00:56.880] He pondered the future of his fate [01:00.530] To wait another day would be far too late [01:08.030] Go fetch me my coat and my tie [01:11.170] And the cheapest labour that money can buy [01:14.770] Saddle me up my buckskin mare [01:18.350] If you see me go by put up a prayer [01:25.720] Well they rode all night and they rode all day [01:29.130] Eastward long on the broad highway [01:32.610] His spirit was tired and his vision was bent [01:36.280] His men deserted him and onward he went [01:43.140] He came to a place where the land was dull [01:47.000] His poor head pounding in his skull [01:50.240] Heavy heart was racked with pain [01:53.910] Insomnia raging in his brain [02:01.270] Well he threw down his helmet and his cross handle sword [02:04.630] He renounced his faith he denied his lord [02:08.270] Crawled on his belly put his ear to the wall [02:11.630] One way or another put an end to it all [02:19.200] He leaned down cut the electric wire [02:22.550] Stared into the flames and he snorted the fire [02:26.220] Peered through the darkness caught a glimpse of the two [02:29.760] Hard to tell for certain who was who [02:36.850] He lowered himself down on a golden chain [02:40.440] His nerves were quickening every vein [02:43.860] His knuckles were bloody he sucked in the air [02:47.250] He ran his fingers through his greasy hair [02:54.710] They looked at each other and their glasses clinked [02:57.990] One single unit inseparably linked [03:01.510] Got a strange premonition there's a man close by [03:05.230] Don't worry about him he wouldn't harm a fly [03:12.440] From behind the curtain the boss crossed the floor [03:15.900] He moved his feet and he bolted the door [03:19.420] Shadows hiding the lines in his face [03:22.750] With all the nobility of an ancient race [03:30.160] She turned she was startled by a look of surprise [03:33.600] With the hatred that could hit the skies [03:36.980] You're a reckless fool I could see it in your eyes [03:40.540] To come this way was by no means wise [03:48.390] Get up stand up you greedy lipped wench [03:51.470] And cover your face with some other consequence [03:54.810] You are making my heart feel sick [03:58.270] Put your clothes on double quick [04:05.840] Sill boy you think me a saint [04:08.960] To listen no more to your words of complaint [04:12.670] You've given me nothing but the sweetest lies [04:16.360] Now hold your tongue and feed your eyes [04:23.470] Id have given you the stars and the planets too [04:27.020] What good are these things to you [04:30.470] By the heart if not the knee [04:33.830] Or never again this world you see [04:41.180] Oh please let not your heart be cold [04:44.510] This man is dearer to me than gold [04:48.090] Oh my dear you must be blind [04:51.600] He's a gutless ape with a worthless mind [04:58.980] You've had your way too long with me [05:02.340] Now its me who will determine how things will be [05:05.940] Tried to escape he cussed and cursed [05:09.450] You'll have to try get passed me first [05:17.000] I dared not let your passion rule [05:20.190] You think my heart the heart of a fool [05:23.840] And you sir you can not deny [05:27.160] You made a monkey of me for what and for why [05:34.540] Ill have no more of this insulting chat [05:38.050] The devil can have you I'll see to that [05:41.620] Look sharp or step aside [05:45.060] Or in the cradle you'll wish you died [05:52.480] The gun went boom and the shot rang clear [05:55.670] The first bullet grazed his ear [05:59.680] Second ball went right straight in [06:02.820] And he bent in the middle like a twisted bin [06:09.960] He crawled to the corner and he lowered his head [06:13.410] He grabbed the chair and he grabbed the bed [06:18.080] It would take more than needle and thread [06:21.520] Bleeding from the mouth he's as good as dead [06:28.600] You shot my husband down you fiend [06:32.220] Husband what, husband what the hell do you mean [06:35.470] He was man of strife a man of sin [06:38.870] I cut him down and I throw him to the wind [06:49.080] Hear this she said with angry breath [06:52.320] You too shall meet the lord of death [06:55.490] It was I who brought your soul to life [06:59.200] And she raised her robe and she drew out a knife [07:06.660] His face was hard and caked with sweat [07:10.250] His arms ached and his hands were wet [07:13.760] You're a murderous woman and bloody wife [07:17.180] If you don't mind ill have the knife [07:24.630] We're two of a kind and our blood runs hot [07:27.950] But we're no way similar in body or thought [07:31.140] All husbands are good men is all I knew [07:34.680] Then she pierced him to the heart and his blood did flow [07:42.410] His knees went limp and he reached for the door [07:45.760] His doom was sealed he slipped to the floor [07:49.170] He whispered in her ear this is all your fault [07:52.820] My fighting days have come to a halt [08:00.140] She touched his lips and kissed his cheek [08:03.440] He tried to speak but his breath was weak [08:07.020] You die for me I will die for you [08:10.500] She put the blade to her heart and she ran it though [08:17.660] All three lovers together in a heap [08:21.170] Thrown into the grave forever to sleep [08:24.800] Funeral torches blazed away [08:28.430] Through the towns and the villages all night and all day
