lyrics

Tonight
My boy will die
By electric chair
My God!
He’s only fourteen years old!

When all
We came to find
The missing girls
We couldn’t even imagine
What was about to be

The day George Burke found them in that soggy ditch
I felt so bad and very sad
The two little girls so brutally murdered
And their killer - still out there
A hole in Mary Emma’s skull
Two inch-long cut above her eyebrow
Seven blows on Betty June’s head
A skull nothing but a mass of crushed bones

We’re living sad days in Alcolu
We’re living sad days in Alcolu
Sad days in Alcolu
We’re living sad days in Alcolu

Sad days
In Alcolu
Sad days

The day
He was arrested
and accused
The entire world –
collapsed under my feet!

And when
He confessed
All his crimes
A sort of dizziness
Invaded me

From that night I couldn’t sleep nor think
I feel so drained, tired and powerless
All this sounds
Absurd to me!
Oh my Lord,
What’s your purpose?

Now that you son are going to pass away
And the chair will leave you dead and mouth foaming
I will pray for your soul
I’ll try to pray for yout soul!

We’re living sad days in Alcolu
We’re living sad days in Alcolu
Sad days in Alcolu
We’re living sad days in Alcolu

Sad days
In Alcolu
Sad days
