Oh gal, oh gal, with your darkened eyes 
Kindle the wood and prepare the lies 
And don't fail me know 
Oh me, oh my, oh beast with might 
Drown me with water and burn me with fire 
And don't fail me now 
Just don't fail me now 
You don't do me right 
You don't do me right 
Why you do me wrong when the rope gets tight? 
When the rope gets tight 
When the rope gets tight 

Oh day, oh night, oh darkened light 
Drown me with water and burn me with fire 
And don't fail me know 
Oh Mary, oh mother of all that is near 
Lead me to freedom from my kingdom of fear 
And don't fail me now 
Just don't fail me now 
You don't do me right 
You don't do me right 
Why you do me wrong when the rope gets tight? 
When the rope gets tight 
When the rope gets tight 
When the rope gets tight 

Oh gal, oh gal, with your darkened heart 
Kindle the wood and prepare to start 
Just don't fail me now 
Just don't fail me now 
You don't do me right 
You don't do me right 
Why you do me wrong when the rope gets tight? 
When the rope gets tight 
When the rope gets tight 
When the rope gets tight
