Lyrics
Oh, me name it is Sam Hall,
chimney sweep, chimney sweep,
Oh, me name it is Sam Hall, chimney sweep.
Oh, me name it is Sam Hall,
and I hate you one and all,
You're a bunch of muckers all,
damn your eyes, damn your eyes,
You're a bunch of muckers all,
damn your eyes.
I have 20 pounds in store,
that's not all, that's not all,
I have 20 pounds in store, that's not all.
I have 20 pounds in store,
and I'll rob for twenty more,
For the rich must help the poor,
so must I, so must I,
For the rich must help the poor,
so must I.
Oh, they brought me to Coote Hill
in a cart, in a cart,
Oh, they brought me to Coote Hill in a cart.
Oh, they brought me to Coote Hill,
there I stopped to make my will,
For the best of friends must part,
so must I, so must I,
For the best of friends must part,
so must I.
Up the ladder I did grope,
that's no joke, that's no joke
Up the ladder I did grope, that's no joke.
Up the ladder I did grope,
and the hangman pulled the rope,
Oh, and ne'er a word I spoke,
tumblin' down, tumblin' down,
Oh, and ne'er a word I spoke,
tumblin' down.
Oh, me name it is Sam Hall,
chimney sweep, chimney sweep,
Oh, me name it is Sam Hall, chimney sweep.
Oh, me name it is Sam Hall,
and I hate yas one and all,
And me neck will pay for all,
when I die, when I die,
And me neck will pay for all,
when I die.
