So you found yourself a killer
The one with blue eyes
I guess the bloodstains on the blanket don't lie
Don't
Well I guess I saw it comin'
Like a boy I just kept runnin'
But through this crime I have survived
Yeah
They're gonna hang you from the cypress tree
The crowd gonna cheer when they see you swing
Yeah
They're gonna hang you from the cypress tree
Yeah
Tell me now do you believe
Glory hallelujah
I raise my glass up to you
And I bow my head with utmost respect
Yeah
But I think it's only fair to warn you
That there's a storm that's coming up on you
And like the wind and the rain my words are direct
Yeah
They're gonna hang you from the cypress tree
The crowd gonna cheer when they see you swinging
Yeah
They're gonna hang you from the cypress tree
Oh
Tell me now do you believe
It's a funny word
'Friends'
You get beginnings and you got ends
I guess I'll see you when we're ashes again
Yeah
They're gonna hang you from the cypress tree
The crowd gonna cheer when they see you swing
Swing
Swing
Yeah
They're gonna hang you from the cypress tree
Oh
Tell me do you believe
Do you believe me
Do you believe me
