There Would Be Hell To Pay
When all the ladies Heard that he was dead
Some wore orange dresses And some wore red
When all the ladies Heard that he had died
He could hear them wailing All the way on the other side
Police officer walked onto the plan
Don't come any closer said Curtis to the man
Curtis said to Delia as she turned to walk away
You so very beautiful but you gonna die someday
Judge he said to Curtis What's this noise about
Curtis said these evil men are trying to put me out
When all the ladies Heard that he was dead
Some wore black dresses And some wore red
He unhooked his revolver and pulled on his gloves
Just before he folded King Queen Jack Ten Nine of clubs
He saw Delia leaning over by the door
Stood at the table and he pulled his forty four
Delia started crying fell on her knees to pray
Delia begged for mercy but there would be hell to pay
When all the ladies Heard that he was dead
Some wore orange dresses And some wore red
When all the ladies Heard that he had died
He could hear them wailing All the way on the other side
Curtis said Your Honor what might be my fine?
The judge said Poor boy you get ninety nine
Other existence identity light
Mojo come to my house then back into the night
Delia was a gambling girl she would scream and shout
She placed a rose at Mojo's tomb then blew the candle out
When all the ladies Heard that he was dead
Some wore orange dresses And some wore red
When all the ladies Heard that he had died
He could hear them wailing All the way on the other side
Haveria Inferno a Pagar
Quando todas as mulheres
Ouviram que ele estava morto
Algumas vestiam vestidos laranja
E outras vestiam vermelho
Quando todas as mulheres
Ouviram que ele tinha morrido
Ele podia ouvi-las chorando
Do outro lado, bem longe
Um policial entrou no plano
"Não chegue mais perto", disse Curtis ao homem
Curtis disse a Delia enquanto ela se virava pra ir embora
"Você é tão linda, mas um dia vai morrer"
O juiz disse a Curtis: "Que barulho é esse?"
Curtis respondeu: "Esses homens maus estão tentando me derrubar"
Quando todas as mulheres
Ouviram que ele estava morto
Algumas vestiam vestidos pretos
E outras vestiam vermelho
Ele desabotoou seu revólver e vestiu as luvas
Logo antes de dobrar Rei, Rainha, Valete, Dez, Nove de paus
Ele viu Delia encostada na porta
Parou na mesa e puxou seu quarenta e quatro
Delia começou a chorar, caiu de joelhos pra rezar
Delia implorou por misericórdia, mas haveria inferno a pagar
Quando todas as mulheres
Ouviram que ele estava morto
Algumas vestiam vestidos laranja
E outras vestiam vermelho
Quando todas as mulheres
Ouviram que ele tinha morrido
Ele podia ouvi-las chorando
Do outro lado, bem longe
Curtis disse: "Meritíssimo, qual pode ser minha multa?"
O juiz respondeu: "Coitado, você vai levar noventa e nove"
Outra existência, identidade, luz
"Mojo, venha pra minha casa, depois volte pra noite"
Delia era uma garota de apostas, ela gritava e berrava
Ela colocou uma rosa no túmulo de Mojo e apagou a vela
Quando todas as mulheres
Ouviram que ele estava morto
Algumas vestiam vestidos laranja
E outras vestiam vermelho
Quando todas as mulheres
Ouviram que ele tinha morrido
Ele podia ouvi-las chorando
Do outro lado, bem longe
