La Carcel de Sing Sing
Alci Acosta
Sing Sing Prison
Yesterday, I visited Sing Sing prison
In one of his lonely cells
A man was kneeling to the Redeemer
Mercy, mercy on me, my great Lord
but when he looked at me, he rushed at me
And with a trembling and clipped voice
Listen, sad brother, to this horrible confession
Here I am condemned to death
I had to kill a being that I wanted to love
And even though she is dead, I love her
When I saw her with her lover, I killed them both
Because of that infamous woman, I will die
Just minutes, I have left to breathe
The chair is ready, the camera too
To my poor old lady, how desperate she is
Give him this memory of me
I had to kill a being that I wanted to love
And even though she is dead, I love her
When I saw her with her lover, I killed them both
Because of that infamous man, I will die
Just minutes, I have left to breathe
The chair is ready, the camera too
To my poor old lady, how desperate she is
Give him this memory of me
I had to kill a being that I wanted to love
And although, even being dead, I love her
When I saw her with her lover, I killed them both
Because of that infamous woman, I will die
Because of that infamous man, I will die
