[00:11.19]They killed a man for doing wrong today
[00:17.70]When all he ever did in life was look the other way
[00:22.20]And with his verdict someone heard him pray
[00:26.50]The crowd gathered around to see the look on his face
[00:33.73]Will they ever know the last words he spoke
[00:44.41]He cried, "Mother," as the people stood and stared
[00:56.13]He cried, "Mother," and no one seemed to care
[01:05.59]
[01:07.92]Barely 25 years to his name
[01:11.40]Only the good die young
[01:14.67]It's too hard to say
[01:18.35]With a wife and child living back at home
[01:22.93]Far from here where he dies all alone
[01:30.31]Will they ever know, the last words he spoke
[01:40.67]He cried, "Mother," at the people who were there
[01:51.93]Well he cried, "Mother"
[01:56.91]It sounded like a prayer
[02:04.10]
[02:37.39]They killed a man for doing wrong today
