Petition for mercy
(Riffs: Peso; words: Peso)

Brothers appear to have been
The dupes of an artful woman
Execution arrived
Implicated in the crime
While she escapes justice
Execution arrived

Seven months of fear

Each of them delivered a paper
whitch declared their innocence
Execution arrived

Seven months of hope

Clemency had been denied
Clemency had been denied

Petition for mercy

The fear
The hope
The end

They were hanged together
And were long remembered
Execution arrived

Seven months of fear
Clemency had been denied
Clemency had been denied

Petition for mercy

The fear
The hope
The end
The fear
The hope
The end

For half a minute they stayed entwined in death
As they had been before birth
And their hands remained locked together

The fear
The end

Petition for mercy
