Lefter her baby lonely but

Da ist ein junger Mann mit einem Revolver
Der junge Mann hat seine Liebste verloren
Als sie über alle Berge floh

Ließ ihr Baby allein zurück, aber
ihr Baby ist noch nicht fertig.

You have to walk the line.

If you let her get too close
She'll cut you up again.

And yet how great the hand of fate
That rules us one and all.

When it comes my day to die.

Sing your song, O sing it well,
The child has come to pass.

The worst has come to pass.
The Tower trembles on its ground;
The child has come at last

Commala-come-come,
The Battle's Now Begun!
And all the foes of men and rose
Rise with the setting sun.
