Sam Hall Songtext
von The Langer’s Ball

My name is Sam Hall
Chimney sweep, chimney sweep
My name is Sam Hall
Chimney sweep
Oh, my name it is Sam Hall
And I robbed both big and small
My neck will pay for all
When I die
I said my neck will pay for all
When I die

Hyah!


I got twenty pounds in store
That′s no lie, it's no lie
I′ve twenty pounds in store
That's no lie
Well, I have twenty pounds in store
But I'd rob ten pounds more
For the rich must help the poor
And so must I
I said the rich must help the poor
And so must I

Hyah!

Oh, they took me to Coote Hill
In a cart, in a cart
Oh, they took me to Coote Hill
In a cart
Oh, they took me to Coote Hill
On the way I wrote my will
The best of friends must part
So must I
I said the best of friends must part
So must I

Hyah!


Up the ladder I did grope
That′s no joke, it′s no joke
Up the ladder I did grope
That's no joke
Up the ladder I did grope
But the hangman pulled the rope
And "devil"the word I spoke
Tumblin′ down
Oh, "devil" the word I spoke
Tumblin' down

Hyah! Hyah!

Oh, my name is Sam Hall
Chimney sweep, chimney sweep
My name is Sam Hall
Chimney sweep
Oh, my name it is Sam Hall
And I hate you one and all
You′re a bunch of muckers, all
Damn your eyes
Oh, you're a bunch of muckers, all
Damn your eyes

Hyah!
