It took a blow to the head And I realized what I Was put on this earth to achieve It showed me the way So make an example of me Hang me up from the tallest tree Make an example of me This is not the voice of reason It's the cross I was chosen to bear This is not the voice of reason My time has surely come I'm as guilty as can be This is treason In the first degree Now the gallows tree She calls to me my name There can be no reprieve for me now In this lifetime This is not the voice of reason It's the cross I was chosen to bear This is not the voice of reason Make an example of me Make an example of me
