Down on Rockwood
crime don't pay good
makes a mess profound

Heaven's mercies
seem to hurt these
all the rest resound
and follow

down
wheel
take
me

down
wheel
make
me

My heart's paved her
barely scathed her
spread her inkling brown

Forty pages
sung in stages
rests the guessing gown
and follows

down
wheel
take
me

down
wheel
break
me

Once for pleasure
twice to measure
here to Mercy's frown

Three times over
bends the clover
kisses now the ground
and follows
