Saint Stephen's End Songtext
von The Felice Brothers

Did you hear about Saint Stephen′s end?
How they stoned him by the river bend?
And the morning sun
When the world was young

Did you hear about the elephant
Ran wild from the circus tent?
Killed a crowd of ten
Before they shot him dead

Oh Mary, don't you cry
Please, lay your weary hand in mine


Did you hear about Edith Cavell
How on the firing line she fell?
In a Belgian night
In a dress of white

Oh Mary, don′t you cry
Please, lay your weary hand in mine
And swing low and softly down
And lend me your ear

Did you hear about Saint Peter's crown
How they crucified him upside down?
In the desert air
When the world was fair

Oh Mary, don't you cry
Please, lay your weary hand in mine
And swing low and softly down
And lend me your ear, Mary dear
