Luyện nghe bài hát Last Public Hanging In West Virginia

Rock of cleft for me
Now that could be the voice of John F Morgan in the Ripley singin' hymns
ol' Johnny might just be singin' hymn this mornin'
Cause is gonna be a hangin' day for him
Now people say that Johnny was a bad man and that he had a aim for bein'
He took a hatchet one cold weary he killed two children and the widow Green
Five thousand people gathered there in Ripley invited by the sheriff Jay O
Havin' fun and drinking moonshine liquor and listenin' to ol' Johnny hymn
The day dawned cold in Ripley West Virginia the scaffold stood in in a field
kept on singin' in the jailhouse waiting there to eat his final meal
Then started flying through the gathering
That John F Morgan might get his
The people yelling toward the sheriff
they'd miss for all they come to see
But Jay O Sean the sheriff of Jackson
Afraid that such a could have been done
Said I said there was gonna be a hangin' and I still it there's a gonna be one
They led John from the Ripley jailhouse
And he rode through the laughin' crowd
But when Morgan stepped upon the scaffold
They grew quiet he tip his hat and bowed
They listened to the preacher say the words
They fixed the noose and tied John Morgan's
The signal came and someone sprang the dead's
And sent Morgan to another land
The public hanging in old West Virginia a true story written in this song
On the of December in fifteen ninety seven
John F Morgan paid the price of wrong
