Tim Evans was a prisoner, down in his prison cell
And those who read about his crimes, condemned his soul to hell
Saying go down, you murderer, go down, you murderer go down
For the killing of his own dear wife and the murder of his child
The jury found him guilty, the hanging judge he smiled
Saying go down, you murderer, go down, you murderer go down
They took Tim Evans from the dock and they led him to his cell
They closed the door behind his back, saying damn your soul to hell
Saying go down, you murderer, go down, you murderer go down
Tim Evans pleaded innocent, he swore by him on high
He never killed his own dear wife, nor caused his child to die
Saying go down, you murderer, go down, you murderer go down
Tim Evans walked around the yard, his bros they walked behind
He saw the sky above the wall, he knew no peace he'd find
Saying go down, you murderer, go down, you murderer go down
The governor came to his cell, the chaplain by his side
Saying your appeal has been turned down, prepare yourself to die
Saying go down, you murderer, go down, you murderer go down
They took Tim Evans to the place where the hangman did prepare
They tied a rope around his neck with a knot behind his ear
Saying go down, you murderer, go down, you murderer go down
A thousand lads were screaming, they were cursing at the door
Tim Evans didn't hear them, he was dead forever more
Saying go down, you murderer, go down, you murderer go down
They sent Tim Evans to the dock for a crime he didn't do
It's Christ he was the murderer, the judge and jury too
Saying go down, you murderer, go down, you murderer go down
Saying go down, you murderer, go down, you murderer go down
You murderer go down
