Dick Flood - Manhunt Lyrics




Hound dogs a-bayin', tonight there's been a slayin'
The town is out; the manhunt has begun
They're cussin' and a-blamin' there's gonna' be a hangin'
But I swear, oh Lord I swear, I'm not the one

I hear the cry of the loon; Lord there's blood on the moon
Oh lord forgive; I can't take time to pray
Gotta run on blindly the crowd is close behind me
And those torches light the swamp as bright as day

Hound dogs a-gruntin'; it's me they're a-huntin'
But someone else should be out here instead
Nothing's gonna save me that wild mob is crazy
They won't give up until they see me dead

I hear the cry of the loon; lord there's blood on the moon
Poor Sarah now will never be my wife
No time for explainin'; they're to busy blamin'
But I'm not the one who took my Sarah's life

Hound dogs a-growlin', angry crowd a-scowlin'
I'm givin' out the chase is almost done
Quicksand all around me now the hounds have found me
I'm trapped oh lord there's place left to run

I hear the cry of the loon lord there's blood on the moon
I can't escape the chase is almost through
I'm feelin' so weary; Sarah can you hear me?
Oh Sarah wait; I'll soon be joining you
