Lyrics
with gold and silver in her hand
With gold and silver in her hand, it s only you that he does crave, and that seven deaths shall never kill him
For that reason i will have to stay., and pay the price and not take your advice
That her father was goin to hang, that five walls will not hide him
If i don t take the chance to try, with gold and silver in her hand
Oh i m as good as dead, cried reilly, in the night the grounds were groanin
And that seven deaths shall never kill him, she saw that hangin branch a-bendin, she saw that hangin branch a-bendin
And pay the price and not take your advice, get on your horse and ride away. Seven, old reilly s daughter got a message
She saw her father s body broken, that one doctor will not save him, old reilly stole a stallion
that six diggers will not bury him
that five walls will not hide him
The next mornin she had awoken, and that seven deaths shall never kill him
Oh i m as good as dead, cried reilly, that her father was goin to hang
and they laid him down on the jailhouse ground
in the night the grounds were groanin
in the night the grounds were groanin
The gallows shadows shook the evening, get on your horse and ride away.
That one doctor will not save him, when the judge he saw reilly s daughter, that two healers will not heal him
If i don t take the chance to try, that six diggers will not bury him
that two healers will not heal him
She saw her father s body broken, the gallows shadows shook the evening Tom, that three eyes will not see him
It s only you that he does crave, it s only you that he does crave, that her father was goin to hang
The gallows shadows shook the evening, it s only you that he does crave
but they caught him and they brought him back
his old eyes deepened in his head
The gallows shadows shook the evening, oh father you will surely die
oh i m as good as dead, cried reilly
These be seven curses on a judge so cruel, that three eyes will not see him
That six diggers will not bury him, that her father was goin to hang
That six diggers will not bury him, old reilly stole a stallion Tom, old reilly stole a stallion
Get on your horse and ride away., she saw her father s body broken, in the night the grounds were groanin
And pay the price and not take your advice, is you instead.
His old eyes deepened in his head, for that reason i will have to stay., that two healers will not heal him
And they laid him down on the jailhouse ground, gold will never free your father
that four ears will not hear him
that two healers will not heal him
That four ears will not hear him, that four ears will not hear him Seven, it s only you that he does crave
and they laid him down on the jailhouse ground
She saw her father s body broken, with gold and silver in her hand
and pay the price and not take your advice
And they laid him down on the jailhouse ground, old reilly s daughter got a message, in the night a hound dog bayed
That six diggers will not bury him, to know that the judge had never spoken
In the night the grounds were groanin, that three eyes will not see him Tom, the next mornin she had awoken
And they laid him down on the jailhouse ground, oh father you will surely die Russell, that three eyes will not see him
And they laid him down on the jailhouse ground, it s only you that he does crave Curses, and my skin will surely crawl if he touches you at all
and that seven deaths shall never kill him
When the judge he saw reilly s daughter, and that seven deaths shall never kill him, she rode by night and came by morning
The next mornin she had awoken, it s only you that he does crave Tom, but they caught him and they brought him back
Is you instead., to know that the judge had never spoken
But they caught him and they brought him back, that three eyes will not see him, and my skin will surely crawl if he touches you at all
