[00:00:02] Lilli Schull (Album Version) - Uncle Tupelo

[00:00:03] Written by：Jeffrey Scot Tweedy/Jay Stuart Farrar

[00:00:39] A great crowd has now gathered

[00:00:48] All around the jail today

[00:00:59] To see me executed

[00:01:08] And hear what I do say

[00:01:18] Now I must hang this morning

[00:01:27] For the murder of Lilli Schull

[00:01:37] Whom I so cruelly murdered

[00:01:46] And her body shamefully burned

[00:01:56] The fire where I burned her

[00:02:05] Is again now within my sight

[00:02:15] Her lovely face recovering

[00:02:25] And the fire that burned so bright

[00:02:35] The cries of poor Lilli

[00:02:45] Again I can almost hear

[00:02:55] As she begged me not to kill her

[00:03:04] Her life alone to spare

[00:03:15] Now I bow down to Jesus

[00:03:25] In penitential grief

[00:03:34] And I beg him now to save me

[00:03:43] Like he did the dying thief

[00:03:53] God bless my aged parents

[00:04:03] Who mourn for me alone

[00:04:13] And my wife and baby

[00:04:22] Who will be left alone

[00:04:31] It was then that I heard a whisper

[00:04:41] In a most gentle tone

[00:04:50] My grave is one sufficient

[00:05:00] To save the vilest one
