john cale – the hanging lyrics
[verse 1]
we don’t know what we’re thinking
you wanna see us cry
shouting at the change
before we catch on fire
haemorrhaging history
bleeding from the nose
calling out the century before the ice done froze
[verse 2]
riding in on horseback
firing off the shots
pretending to be cavalry
which we were not
bring me to the hangman
drop me down the hole
i won’t be making excuses like i did before
[verse 3]
the cart fills up the sidewalk
the horse is in the barn
shouting through the morning mist
setting off the alarm
if they’d never given thought
to giving up
first they’d have to realize – enough’s enough
first they’d have to realize – enough’s enough
[verse 4]
sheriff’s got his gold star
man has got his chain
neither one is ready
to go through that again
if they’d never thought
to giving up
made up their minds for them – enough’s enough
we made up their minds for them – enough’s enough
