Lyrics:

Oh, tell the tale of the wicked soldier
Oh, tell the tale of the wicked man
Oh, tell the tale of the wicked soldier
Oh, tell the tale of the wicked man

They say they heard him cry the fool's prayer
They say they heard him cry the fool
They say they heard him cry the fool's prayer
They say that, they just say that

For, oh, my love's by the old tin wall
She's waiting there, she's waiting there for me
My love's by the old tin wall
She's waiting there, she's waiting there for me

Some say the rope, she is hangin'
Some say the rope, she is free
Some say the rope, she is hangin'
So say the rope to hang upon me

So say the wise, 'She can't hear you'
So say the wise, 'She can't hear'
So say the wise, 'She can't hear you'
Some say that, a-they just say that

For, oh, my love's by the old tin wall
She's waiting there, she's waiting there for me
All others will compare to her
She's waiting there, she's waiting there for me

Oh, my love, I've waited here for you
All this time
Oh, my love, I've waited here for you
All this time

[Guitar Solo]

My love's by the old tin wall
She's waiting there, she's waiting there for me
My love's by the old tin wall
She's waiting there, she's waiting there for me

[Outro]
All others will compare
She'll never know, she'll never know, she'll never know
