《Axe Mountain》歌词

[00:00:00] Sit down here beside me
[00:00:03] Come on here I'll all tell
[00:00:08] Of lonely old Axe Mountain town
[00:00:12] And Lester Joseph Cale
[00:00:16] In a place the men would work by day
[00:00:19] The women worked at night
[00:00:23] And came together evening time
[00:00:27] To love and then to fight
[00:00:32] Long hours did the women work
[00:00:36] And hard their burden was
[00:00:41] So doubly hard they worried when
[00:00:44] Young Lily May was lost
[00:01:04] Lily May was mourned
[00:01:06] Another week passed in the rain
[00:01:08] Until the day of harvest came
[00:01:09] And we were missing Jane
[00:01:13] Another season's toil gone
[00:01:16] Another season's more;
[00:01:18] 'Til Lily Jane and dozens still
[00:01:20] Were buried on the Moor
[00:01:21] What did their husbands say
[00:01:25] They simply cowered weak and frail
[00:01:29] For none would dare to speak that name
[00:01:33] Lester Joseph Cale
[00:01:37] Axe Mountain town you let those women
[00:01:40] Die by the knife
[00:01:42] A lover did I have for sure
[00:01:44] I'll love her all my life
[00:01:50] He came out of the darkness
[00:01:52] With a rucksack made of skin
[00:01:54] And as soon as he was seen
[00:01:56] He was gone again
[00:02:00] I heard he'd been a murderer
[00:02:01] Fifty years or more
[00:02:03] Heard he killed whole villages
[00:02:05] All across the Moor
[00:02:07] I'm told he had a family
[00:02:09] A child and a wife
[00:02:10] But now no woman here was safe
[00:02:12] From Lester Joseph Cale's knife
[00:02:15] "Stand up Be strong We'll take him "
[00:02:18] Said the bravest of the men
[00:02:20] Dead in his bed was found that night
[00:02:21] In pieces there were ten
[00:02:23] 'All shall be bled' was written
[00:02:24] In red on the bedroom wall
[00:02:27] His Helena she saw this
[00:02:28] And she fled across the Moor
[00:02:33] Axe Mountain town you let those women
[00:02:36] Die by the knife
[00:02:38] A lover did I have for sure
[00:02:40] I'll love her all my life
[00:03:18] She climbed up old Axe Mountain
[00:03:20] And she raised her hands and cried:
[00:03:22] "Grant me a weapon gods of mine
[00:03:27] That Lester Cale mroys die"
[00:03:33] The sky did crack and split the mountain
[00:03:35] Helena reached inside
[00:03:37] Pulled out an axe so terrible
[00:03:39] That any man would die
[00:03:43] She screamed with rage
[00:03:44] And flung herself into the town below
[00:03:47] Tore off her clothes and waited for
[00:03:48] Lester Joseph Cale to show
[00:03:50] And so he did he came and laughed:
[00:03:52] "Little girl what is your plan
[00:03:54] You're alone here it's just you and me
[00:03:56] I butchered your old man"
[00:03:57] Said she: "Bastard Don't speak his name
[00:04:00] Don't mention my old man "
[00:04:01] And so she struck him in the face
[00:04:03] And cut off both his hands
[00:04:04] She cut him five three
[00:04:06] 'Til she could cut no more
[00:04:08] She fed his meat and bones
[00:04:09] To wild dogs upon the Moor
[00:04:17] Axe Mountain town you let those women
[00:04:18] Die by the knife
[00:04:21] A lover did I have for sure
[00:04:23] I'll love her all
[00:04:48] The seasons passed and
[00:04:50] Helena remained there 'til she died
[00:04:52] The men went off in search
[00:04:53] Of better jobs and living brides
[00:04:58] But a woman there was mine
[00:05:00] I loved her more than life
[00:05:02] So scared was I
[00:05:05] So scared of Lester Joseph Cale was I
[00:05:10] So scared was I
[00:05:12] I could not protect my wife
[00:05:22] Axe Mountain town you let my women
[00:05:27] Die by the blade
[00:05:31] A lover did I know for sure
[00:05:34] Regret it every day
[00:05:39] Axe Mountain town you let those women
[00:05:45] Die by the knife
[00:05:47] A lover did I have for sure
[00:05:50] I'll love her
[00:05:52] And I miss her all my life
