The Story of a Witch lyrics

This is the story of a witch

With snow-white skin and deep dark eyes

Had she that sight the witching might

Hair as black as the raven

She was the mother to the child

Who's father was not alive

Rumors said the devil came to visit

Lust for her were felt by men so many

Pointed out amongst other she cried

But no one came to help

Priest paid witchfinder pointed finger

As was taken away from the church

Witchfinder come free us from disease he said

and gave generously of the village money

In the name of God he had that right

When he pointed out the priests wife

She said yes to all their accusations

And was sentenced to die by fire

Truth was found by tourturing her insane

Died together with a black cat on a pole

This is a story of a witch

With snow-white skin and deep dark eyes

Had she that sight the witching might

Hair as black as the raven
