The Girl on Death Row Lyrics

written by Lee Hazlewood  
 
Her eyes were once so full of dreams  
Her young heart filled with love and ...  
Now every second she must borrow  
They take her life tomorrow  
 
Is she guilty? She says no  
The girl on death row  
 
Now someone holds her trembling hand  
Another who don't understand  
Why can't they see in her face?  
Another should be in her place  
 
Is she guilty? She says no  
The girl on death row  
 
Her young dreams never will come true  
Her innocence they never knew  
Until they found the guilty one  
They're sorry now what they've done  
But it's way too late now  
For the girl on death row  
 
   
Mockin' Bird 
written by Tom Waits  
 
Mockin' bird, high in the tree 
Looks like you've got the best of me 
Mockin' bird, singing a song 
Well, mockin' bird is mocking me now that you're gone  
 
Mockin' bird, on top of my roof 
Blowin' notes on top of my roof 
Mockin' bird singing a song 
Well, mockin' bird is mocking me now that you're gone  
 
Mockin' bird, high in the tree 
I'm looking up at you, you're looking down at me 
Mockin' bird, singing a song 
Well, the mockin' bird is mocking me now that you're gone  
 
Throw up some papers, try to scare him away 
Look down at me, this what he says. . . 
Mockin' bird, high in the tree 
Looks like you've got the best of me 
Mockin' bird, singing a song 
Well, the mockin' bird is mocking me now that you're gone
