When the Sun Rises
Dance pretty girl lets dance Dance pretty girl I know Dance pretty girl lets dance take ma hand and when the sun rises we can go
I am just an innocent man no scars on my heart no blood on my hands
But no no no said the jury telling the judge another tale for the verdict called the shot and my girl cannot pay the bail
So what's it gonna be says the prosecutor with a greasy grin of hope is it the chair, or the chambers, or that ole' forsaken rope
Now Judge Jackson sips of water and says with a smile the offenders' hanging will be public on the first Friday of July
Dance pretty girl lets dance Dance pretty girl I know Dance pretty girl lets dance take ma hand and when the sun rises we can go
They locked me up and threw my old life behind and I know those children were so young but that mangum was not mine
But in all this thought and confusion in my brain that swished and swirled the only thought that did me good was once last dance with my girl
So I started making plots, started making plans gonna break out of this hell so we could dance like that first sweet day I metcha at Aunt Nancys Water Well
Dance pretty girl lets dance Dance pretty girl I know Dance pretty girl lets dance take ma hand and when the sun rises we can go
OH OH OH – OH OH OH OH OH – OH OH OH OH OH OH OH OH OH OH OH OH OH
My cellmate Samuel said all you gotta do is run but when I leave this jail I don't give a hell we gonna dance until we see the sun
The moment came so I stuck like mud and ran out the wired gates into the fate of a free yet wanted man
The warden and the sheriff set the search and grabbed their guns but by that time my girl and I were one two steppin into the sun
Dance pretty girl lets dance Dance pretty girl I know Dance pretty girl lets dance take ma hand and when the sun rises we can go
