Sting and Police - I Hung My Head слова песни
Early one morning with time to killI borrowed Jeb`s rifle and sat on the hillI saw a lone rider crossing the plainI drew a bread on him to practice my aimMy brother`s rifle went off in my handA shot rang out across the landThe horse he kept running, the rider was deadI hung my head, I hung my headI set off running to wake from the dreamMy brother`s rifle went into the streamI kept on running into the salt landsAnd that`s where they found me, my head in my handsThe sheriff he asked me "Why had I run"Then it came to me just what I had doneAnd all for no reason, just one piece of leadI hung my head, I hung my headHere in the courthouse, the whole town is thereI see the judge high up in his chair"Explain to the courtroom what went through your mindAnd we`ll ask the jury what verdict they find"I said "I felt the power of death over lifeI orphaned his children I widowed his wifeI beg their forgiveness I wish I was dead"I hung my head, I hung my headEarly one morning with time to killI see the gallows up on the hillAnd out in the distance a trick of the brainI see a lone rider crossing the plainHe`s come to fetch me to see what they doneWe`ll ride together til Kingdom comeI pray for God`s mercy for soon I`ll be deadI hung my head, I hung my head
