The Murder of the Lawson Family

[Verse 1: Sharon Needles]
It was on last Christmas evening
The snow was on the ground
His home in North Carolina
Where the murder was bound

[Verse 2: Sharon Needles]
His name was Charlie Lawson
And he had a loving wife
But, we'll never know what caused him
To take his family's li-i-ife

[Verse 3: Sharon Needles]
They say he killed his wife the first
And the little ones did cry
"Please, Papa, won't you spare our lives?
For it is so hard to die!"

[Verse 4: Sharon Needles]
But, the raging man could not be stopped
He would not heed their call
He kept on firing fatal shots
Until he killed them a-a-all

[Verse 5: Sharon Needles]
And when the sad, sad news was heard
It was a great surprise
He killed six children and his wife
And then he closed their eyes

[Verse 6: Sharon Needles]
And now, farewell, great friends at home
I'll see you all no more
Into my breast I'll fire one fatal shot
And then my troubles will be over

[Verse 7: Sharon Needles]
They did not carry him to jail
No lawyers did he pay
He'll have his trial in another world
On the final Judgement Day

[Verse 8: Sharon Needles]
They were all buried in a crowded grave
While Angels watched above
Come home, come home my little ones
To the land of peace and love
