Letra actual de la canción
Rock of ages cleft for me<br />Now that could be the voice of John F Morgan in the Ripley jailhouse singin' hymns<br />Well ol' Johnny might just be singin' hymn this mornin'<br />Cause this is gonna be a hangin' day for him<br />Now people say that Johnny was a bad man and that he had a name for bein' mean<br />He cut a hatchet one cold weary morning he killed two children and the widow Green<br />By a thousand people gathered there in Ripley invited by the sheriff Jay O Shimm<br />Havin' fun and drinking moonshine liquor and listenin' to ol' Johnny singin' hymn<br />The day don't call in Ripley West Virginia the scaffold stood in silence in a field<br />Johnny kept on singin' in the jailhouse waiting there to eat his final meal<br />Then rumor started flying through the gathering<br />That John F Morgan might get his reprieve<br />The people started yelling toward the sheriff<br />Afraid they'd miss for all they come to see<br />But Jay O Shimm the sheriff of Jackson County<br />Afraid that such a thing could have been done<br />Said I said there was gonna be a hangin' and I still mean it there's a gonna be one<br />They led John Morgan from the Ripley jailhouse<br />And he rode through the happy laughin' crowd<br />But when John Morgan stepped upon the scaffold<br />They grew quiet when he lift his head and bowed<br />They listened to the preacher say the last words<br />They fixed the news and tied John Morgan's hand<br />The signal came and someone sprang the dead's rout<br />And sent John Morgan to another land<br />The last public hanging in old West Virginia a true story written in this song<br />On the sixteen of December in fifteen ninety seven<br />John F Morgan paid the price of doing wrong
