Lilli Schull (Album Version) - Uncle Tupelo[00:00:02]
Written by:Jeffrey Scot Tweedy/Jay Stuart Farrar[00:00:03]
A great crowd has now gathered[00:00:39]
All around the jail today[00:00:48]
To see me executed[00:00:59]
And hear what I do say[00:01:08]
Now I must hang this morning[00:01:18]
For the murder of Lilli Schull[00:01:27]
Whom I so cruelly murdered[00:01:37]
And her body shamefully burned[00:01:46]
The fire where I burned her[00:01:56]
Is again now within my sight[00:02:05]
Her lovely face recovering[00:02:15]
And the fire that burned so bright[00:02:25]
The cries of poor Lilli[00:02:35]
Again I can almost hear[00:02:45]
As she begged me not to kill her[00:02:55]
Her life alone to spare[00:03:04]
Now I bow down to Jesus[00:03:15]
In penitential grief[00:03:25]
And I beg him now to save me[00:03:34]
Like he did the dying thief[00:03:43]
God bless my aged parents[00:03:53]
Who mourn for me alone[00:04:03]
And my wife and baby[00:04:13]
Who will be left alone[00:04:22]
It was then that I heard a whisper[00:04:31]
In a most gentle tone[00:04:41]
My grave is one sufficient[00:04:50]
To save the vilest one[00:05:00]
