Lyrics based on 03/16/00 version. | |||
| Oh gal, oh gal, with your darkened eyes | ||||
| Kindle the wood and prepare the lies | ||||
| And don't fail me know | ||||
| Oh me, oh my, oh beast with might | ||||
| Drown me with water and burn me with fire | ||||
| And don't fail me now | ||||
| Just don't fail me now | ||||
| You don't do me right | ||||
| You don't do me right | ||||
| Why you do me wrong when the rope gets tight? | ||||
| When the rope gets tight | ||||
| When the rope gets tight | ||||
| Oh day, oh night, oh darkened light | ||||
| Drown me with water and burn me with fire | ||||
| And don't fail me know | ||||
| Oh Mary, oh mother of all that is near | ||||
| Lead me to freedom from my kingdom of fear | ||||
| And don't fail me now | ||||
| Just don't fail me now | ||||
| You don't do me right | ||||
| You don't do me right | ||||
| Why you do me wrong when the rope gets tight? | ||||
| When the rope gets tight | ||||
| When the rope gets tight | ||||
| When the rope gets tight | ||||
| Oh gal, oh gal, with your darkened heart | ||||
| Kindle the wood and prepare to start | ||||
| Just don't fail me now | ||||
| Just don't fail me now | ||||
| You don't do me right | ||||
| You don't do me right | ||||
| Why you do me wrong when the rope gets tight? | ||||
| When the rope gets tight | ||||
| When the rope gets tight | ||||
| When the rope gets tight | ||||
| When the rope gets tight | ||||
| Lyrics based on JCN version: | ||||
| Oh gal, oh gal with your darkened eyes | ||||
| Kindle the wood
and prepare the fire And don't fail me now Oh gal, oh gal with your darken soul Kindle the wood and get ready to go Just don't fail me now And don't fail me now You don't do me right You don't do me right Why you do me wrong? When the rope gets tight Oh gal, oh gal with your darken soul Bundle up my things and get ready to go And don't fail me now Oh Mary, oh mother, of all that is near Lead me to freedom from my kingdom of fear And don't fail me now Just don't fail me now You don't do me right You don't do me right Why you do me wrong? When the rope gets tight When the rope gets tight When the rope gets tight When the rope gets tight When the rope gets tight When the rope gets tight When the rope gets tight When the rope gets tight When the rope gets tight When the rope gets tight Why you do me wrong? Why you do me wrong? When the rope gets tight |
