The Sinner

I go by the name of the Sinner I move through the streets like a ghost I used to work for the family Now I'm running like a devil for the coast Do you laugh, do you cry? Will you sing a lullaby for the Sinner? I'm the Sinner A deal gone wrong, now I'm on the run I'm leaving Dublin behind And I'll catch a boat at Carlingford And sail for Liverpool tonight Do you laugh, do you cry? Will you sing a lullaby for the Sinner? I'm the Sinner He said, "Betrayal's the greatest sin of all And it's impossible to forgive a friend" She died like silence as it falls I loved his sister until the end I'll bide my time like a memory And move in the shadows like a thief One day I'll return to Dublin And I'll slit their throats while they sleep Do you laugh, do you cry? Will you sing a lullaby for the Sinner? I'm the Sinner I'm the Sinner I'm the Sinner
