Volbeat - The Hangman's Body Count Lyrics
Verse 1Hear his boots and see the figure dressed in blackEchoes of him have been heard, spiritually he is all intactGuided by the raven since his eyes can't seeHear him drag the rope that goes up to the hangman’s treeThe wind calls your name, get out of your bedGo up to the hills, the raven will leadJudgement will prevail; the hangman is hereVerse 2You smell the rain, and as you walk the final dirtPictures of the crime are past but not forgotten in this worldSee the valley turn to darkness on your wayThe only friend you have is standing at the gallows endThe wind calls your name, get out of your bedGo up to the hills, the raven will leadJugdement will prevail; the hangman is herePut on the rope, you knew the day was comingSay your prayers once more; you are a part of the Hangman’s Body Count(SOLO)Verse 3Hear his boots and see the figure dressed in blackEchoes of him have been heard, spiritually he is all intactThe wind calls your name, get out of your bedGo up to the hills, the raven will leadJudgement will prevail; the hangman is herePut on the rope, you knew the day was comingSay your prayer once more; you are a part of the Hangman’s Body Count
