[ar:Oh Susanna]
[ti:By Rope]
[00:10.38] Eight mouths open crying to be fed
[00:15.56] Sixteen hands a single loaf of bread
[00:22.17] Two cold eyes too sad to shed a tear
[00:27.57] Eighteen years that I've been living here
[00:34.27] Oh my brothers oh my sisters
[00:42.17] You won't see me again
[00:47.23] I've headed out west to join the Williams gang
[00:56.84] Sixteen coaches running down the track
[01:02.20] Eight men ride through the night so black
[01:08.80] Four gunshots go through the railman's head
[01:14.15] One more man lies in a pool of red
[01:20.85] Oh my brothers oh my sisters
[01:28.72] I'm on this dusty plain
[01:33.78] I rob every stagecoach and passenger train
[02:02.34] One bright morning fast asleep in bed
[02:07.57] One soft voice coos up you sleepy head
[02:14.15] Two thick barrels pressed against my face
[02:19.45] Four strong hands drag me from this place
[02:26.20] Tell my brothers tell my sisters
[02:34.08] They won't see me again
[02:39.14] For early next morning by rope I will hang
[02:46.05] See my brothers see my sisters
[02:54.08] See my mother's face
[02:59.15] They've come much too late for by rope I am hanged
