lyrics

They took my brother years ago
To the hanging tree
They left him in the gibbet
His bones for all to see

This morning as I rose
What was it I could see?
A white wing crow was nesting
Up in the hanging tree

White wing crow
Fly through the snow
Shadow over wing
White wing crow
Where did you go?
You could have been my brother once


The white wing crow he looked at me
With the beady eye
And then I knew as I looked back
That surely I would die

My guilt conscience gnaws at me
My brother dies with me
So I let them hang him for my crimes
So the white wing crow haunts me


White wing crow
Fly through the snow
Shadow over wing
Black wing crow
Where did you go?
You could have been my brother once

White wing crow
Where did you go?
You could have been my brother
You could have saved me
You could have saved me from the other

You could have saved me from the other
You could have saved me from the other
