LEAD BELLY
"They Hung Him On A Cross"

They hung him on a cross
They hung him on a cross
They hung him on a cross for me

One day I was lost
They hung him on a cross
They hung him on a cross for me

They whooped him up the hill
They whooped him up the hill
They whooped him up the hill for me

He never said among them would
They never said among them would
They never said among them would for me

One day when I lost
They hung him on a cross
They hung him on a cross for me

They hurt him in the side
They bit him in the side
They bit him in the side for me

One day when I lost
They hung him on a cross
They hung him on a cross for me

They hung his head and died
They hung his head and died
He hung his head and died for me

One day when I lost
They hung him on a cross
They hung him on a cross for me
