It was late last night when the boss came homeTo wander early his mansion and a desolate throneServant said boss the ladies goneShe left this morning just before dawnYou got something to tell me, tell it to me manCome to the point as straight as you canOld henry lee chief of the clanCame riding through the woods and took her by the handThe boss he lay back flat on his bedHe cursed the heat and he clutched his headHe pondered the future of his fateTo wait another day would be far too lateGo fetch me my coat and my tieAnd the cheapest labour that money can buySaddle me up my buckskin mareIf you see me go by put up a prayerWell they rode all night and they rode all dayEastward long on the broad highwayHis spirit was tired and his vision was bentHis men deserted him and onward he wentHe came to a place where the land was dullHis poor head pounding in his skullHeavy heart was racked with painInsomnia raging in his brainWell he threw down his helmet and his cross handle swordHe renounced his faith he denied his lordCrawled on his belly put his ear to the wallOne way or another put an end to it allHe leaned down cut the electric wireStared into the flames and he snorted the firePeered through the darkness caught a glimpse of the twoHard to tell for certain who was whoHe lowered himself down on a golden chainHis nerves were quickening every veinHis knuckles were bloody he sucked in the airHe ran his fingers through his greasy hairThey looked at each other and their glasses clinkedOne single unit inseparably linkedGot a strange premonition there's a man close byDon't worry about him he wouldn't harm a flyFrom behind the curtain the boss crossed the floorHe moved his feet and he bolted the doorShadows hiding the lines in his faceWith all the nobility of an ancient raceShe turned she was startled by a look of surpriseWith the hatred that could hit the skiesYou're a reckless fool I could see it in your eyesTo come this way was by no means wiseGet up stand up you greedy lipped wenchAnd cover your face with some other consequenceYou are making my heart feel sickPut your clothes on double quickSill boy you think me a saintTo listen no more to your words of complaintYou've given me nothing but the sweetest liesNow hold your tongue and feed your eyesId have given you the stars and the planets tooWhat good are these things to youBy the heart if not the kneeOr never again this world you seeOh please let not your heart be coldThis man is dearer to me than goldOh my dear you must be blindHe's a gutless ape with a worthless mindYou've had your way too long with meNow its me who will determine how things will beTried to escape he cussed and cursedYou'll have to try get passed me firstI dared not let your passion ruleYou think my heart the heart of a foolAnd you sir you can not denyYou made a monkey of me for what and for whyIll have no more of this insulting chatThe devil can have you I'll see to thatLook sharp or step asideOr in the cradle you'll wish you diedThe gun went boom and the shot rang clearThe first bullet grazed his earSecond ball went right straight inAnd he bent in the middle like a twisted binHe crawled to the corner and he lowered his headHe grabbed the chair and he grabbed the bedIt would take more than needle and threadBleeding from the mouth he's as good as deadYou shot my husband down you fiendHusband what, husband what the hell do you meanHe was man of strife a man of sinI cut him down and I throw him to the windHear this she said with angry breathYou too shall meet the lord of deathIt was I who brought your soul to lifeAnd she raised her robe and she drew out a knifeHis face was hard and caked with sweatHis arms ached and his hands were wetYou're a murderous woman and bloody wifeIf you dont mind ill have the knifeWe're two of a kind and our blood runs hotBut we're no way similar in body or thoughtAll husbands are good men is all I knewThen she pierced him to the heart and his blood did flowHis knees went limp and he reached for the doorHis doom was sealed he slipped to the floorHe whispered in her ear this is all your faultMy fighting days have come to a haltShe touched his lips and kissed his cheekHe tried to speak but his breath was weakYou die for me I will die for youShe put the blade to her heart and she ran it thoughAll three lovers together in a heapThrown into the grave forever to sleepFuneral torches blazed awayThrough the towns and the villages all night and all day
