Sam Hall Songtext
von Johnny Cash

Well, my name, it is Sam Hall, Sam Hall
Yes, my name, it is Sam Hall, it is Sam Hall
My name it is Sam Hall, and I hate you, one and all
And I hate you, one and all
Damn your eyes!

I killed a man, they said, so they said
I killed a man, they said, so they said
I killed a man, they said, and I smashed in his head
And I left him layin′ dead
Damn his eyes!


But a swinging I must go, I must go
A swinging I must go, I must go
A swinging I must go while you critters down below
Yell up: "Sam, I told you so"
Well, damn your eyes!

I saw Molly in the crowd, in the crowd
I saw Molly in the crowd, in the crowd
I saw Molly in the crowd, and I hollered, right out loud
"Hey there, Molly, ain't you proud? Damn your eyes!"

Then the Sherriff, he came, too, he came, too
Ah, yeah, the Sherriff, he came, too, he came, too
The Sherriff, he came, too, and he said "Sam, how are you?"
And I said, "Well, Sherriff, how are you? Damn your eyes!"

My name is Samuel, Samuel
My name is Samuel, Samuel
My name is Samuel, and I′ll see you all in hell
And I'll see you all in hell
Damn your eyes!
