Sheriff Jack's asleep on his back
Joe Jack's asleep on his pack
Got his head inside a sack
Got his head inside a sack
Over you
Over you


Sheriff Jack won't speak in the hall
Joe Jack won't speak in the hall
He only sits to watch the wall
He only sits to watch the wall
Where hangs, his picture
Where hangs, his picture


That was if she could save time if she loved him
That was Suzy, she could save time if she'd love him
She doesn't feel right about the hangings every night
She doesn't feel right about the hangings every night
So she won't give him her hand
So she won't give him her hand

Can't see all that too
Can't see all that too
But I cannot see you
But I cannot see you
You are in the forest too
You in the forest too
But down in the valley
Or down in the valley


Death stalks his every step
Death stalks his every step

Suzy could save some time if she loved him
Suzy could save some time if she loved him
She doesn't feel right about, hangings every night
She doesn't feel right about hangings every night
So she won't give him her hand
So she won't give him her hand

Lyrics

Joe Jack's asleep on his pack Got his head inside a sack Over you

Joe Jack won't speak in the hall He only sits to watch the wall Where hangs, his picture

That was Suzy, she could save time if she'd love him She doesn't feel right about the hangings every night So she won't give him her hand

Can't see all that too But I cannot see you You in the forest too Or down in the valley

Death stalks his every step The coffin's got him in its grip He's dead on his feet

Suzy could save some time if she loved him She doesn't feel right about hangings every night So she won't give him her hand

(Agh! Again!)
