By morning light they came to take me away Their banners swaying in the wind Out in the rain they dragged me onto the castle yard I could hear the mocking of the crowd
If only I could I would go back in time Then I would undo what I've done
The prist gave me my last rites, my final sip of wine Right before my pending end A Growing fear of dying spreading in my soul Hell or Heaven be my guide
With a noose around my neck and with tears in my eyes I repented the sins of my past
[Chorus] Down to the gallows at the end of a rope I will die as a sinner I'm going Down to the gallows where so many have died By the hands of the hangman
They came down the mountains, they came down the hills To see me draw my final breath Over the rivers, over the moors To see the madman laid to rest!
If only I could I would go back in time Then I would undo what I've done
[Repeat Chorus]
The pilgrims' riddle is so hard to solve The answer determines your rise or your fall heaven or Hell, the riddle is for all
The devils dance in brimstone and fire The angles sing a beckoning call Heaven or Hell, the riddle is for all
With a noose around my neck and tears in my eyes I repented the sins of my past
