"Sam Hall" lyrics
"Sam Hall"
Oh, me name it is Sam Hall
Chimney sweep, chimney sweep
Oh, me name it is Sam Hall
Chimney sweep
Oh, me name it is Sam Hall
And I've robbed both big and small
Oh, me neck will pay for all
When I die, when I die
Oh, me neck will pay for all
When I die
And I have twenty pounds in store
That's not all, that's not all
I have twenty pounds in store
That's not all
I have twenty pounds in store
And I will rob for twenty more
Say the rich must help the poor
So must I, so must I
Say the rich must help the poor
So must I
Well, they took me to Coote Hill
In a cart, in a cart
Well, they took me to Coote Hill
In a cart
Well, they took me to Coote Hill
And I stopped to make my will
Say the best of friends must part
So must I, so must I
Say the best of friends must part
So must I
Up the ladder, I did grope
That's no joke, that's no joke
Up the ladder, r I did grope
That's no joke
Up the ladder, I did grope
And the hangman pulled the rope
And it's ne'er a word I spoke
Tumblin' down, tumblin' down
And it's ne'er a word I spoke, tumblin' down
Oh, me name it is Sam Hall
Chimney sweep, chimney sweep
Oh, me name it is Sam Hall
Chimney sweep
Oh, me name it is Sam Hall
I forgot the word at the end
That was fuckin' perfect

I had
Couldn't ever talk
Not the same way

Water runnin'
The terrace's down

(Nah, take it easy)
