Brothers appear to have been
The dupes of an artful woman
Execution arrived
Implicated in the crime
While she escapes justice
Execution arrived
Seven months of fear
Each of them delivered a paper
whitch declared their innocence
Execution arrived
Seven months of hope
Clemency had been denied
Clemency had been denied
Petition for mercy
The fear
The hope
The end
They were hanged together
And were long remembered
Execution arrived
Seven months of fear
Clemency had been denied
Clemency had been denied
Petition for mercy
The fear
The hope
The end
The fear
The hope
The end
For half a minute they stayed entwined in death
As they had been before birth
And their hands remained locked together
The fear
The end
Petition for mercy
