Tim Evans - Judy Collins[00:00:00]

Tim Evans was a prisoner within his prison cell[00:00:04]

And those who read about his crime[00:00:10]

They d**ned his soul to hell[00:00:12]

Saying go down you murderer go down[00:00:14]

For the murder of his own dear wife[00:00:21]

And the killing of his child[00:00:23]

The jury found him guilty and the[00:00:26]

Hanging judge he smiled[00:00:28]

Saying go down you murderer go down[00:00:30]

Tim Evans pleaded innocent and[00:00:36]

Swore by him on high[00:00:38]

He never killed his own dear[00:00:40]

Wife or house his child to die[00:00:43]

Saying go down you murderer go down[00:00:45]

They moved him out at 6 o'clock[00:00:50]

To his final flowery dell[00:00:53]

And day and night two guards[00:00:55]

Were there and never left his cell[00:00:57]

Saying go down you murderer go down[00:01:00]

Sometimes they played cards[00:01:06]

With him solo and pontoon[00:01:07]

To stop him brooding on the rope[00:01:10]

That was to be his doom[00:01:13]

Saying go down you murderer go down[00:01:15]

The governor came in one day[00:01:20]

With a chaplain by his side[00:01:23]

Said your appeal has been turned[00:01:25]

Down prepare yourself to die[00:01:27]

Saying go down you murderer go down[00:01:30]

Tim Evans walked in the prison yourd[00:01:35]

Guards walked behind[00:01:38]

He saw the sky above the wall[00:01:41]

And knew no peace of mind[00:01:44]

Saying go down you murderer go down[00:01:47]

They fixed the rope around his[00:01:52]

Neck buckled behind his ears[00:01:54]

The prison bell was tolling but[00:01:58]

Tim Evans did not hear[00:02:01]

Saying go down you murderer go down[00:02:03]

A thousand men were cursing[00:02:09]

And banging on their doors[00:02:11]

But Tim Evans did not hear them[00:02:14]

He was deaf for evermore[00:02:16]

Saying go down you murderer go down[00:02:20]

They sent Tim Evans to the drop[00:02:27]

For a crime he didn't do[00:02:29]

To was christie was the murderer[00:02:32]

The judge and jury too[00:02:35]

Saying go down you murderer go down[00:02:40]
