Bài hát Let Him Dangle Báo Lỗi

Bentley said to Craig "Let him have it Chris"

They still don't know today just what he meant

by this

Craig fired the pistol, but was too young to swing

So the police took Bentley and the very next thing

Let him dangle

Let him dangle

Bentley had surrendered, he was under arrest,

when he gave Chris Craig that fatal request

Craig shot Sidney Miles, he took Bentley's word

The prosecution claimed as they charged them

with murder

Let him dangle

Let him dangle


They say Derek Bentley was easily led

Well what's that to the woman that Sidney

Miles wed

Though guilty was the verdict, and Craig had

shot him dead

The gallows were for Bentley and still she

never said

Let him dangle

Let him dangle


Well it's hard to imagine it's the times that

have changed

When there's a murder in the kitchen that is

brutal and strange

If killing anybody is a terrible crime

Why does this bloodthirsty chorus come round

from time to time

Let him dangle


Not many people thought that Bentley would

hang

But the word never came, the phone never rang

Outside Wandsworth Prison there was horror

and hate

As the hangman shook Bentley's hand to

calculate his weight

Let him dangle


From a welfare state to society murder

Bring "back the noose" is always heard

Whenever those swine are under attack

But it won't make you even

It won't bring him back


Let him dangle

Let him dangle (String him up)
