lyrics

I was a servant to my lord and master
We would never hurt another
Only good we would do
I lived alone in a remote cottage
Until that summer they tried to stop us
Helping others through
They thought that I was a slave of Satan
Cursing others, full of hate
And life in carnal sin

Hear me, Father
Hear me, Father
Hear me, Mother Earth
Hear me, Mother Earth

They tied me up and sent me to the manor
To face the banner of the Witchfinder
Facing certain death
He ordered that I should face the torture
Admit my guilt for the slaughter of newborn infant babes
I protested loud that I cured some sickness
With Nature's herbs, and with God's guidance
Only good I do

You lie you live in mortal sin and now must face the torturer's sting
To save you soul, you must confess
We will save your soul from Hell or you will find that you will dwell
Eternity, in agony
Confess these crimes by rights divine and I'll show mercy at the time
Of your death, oh, at the stake! Ha! Ha!
God is just and God is right and God will help you through this night
Now confess, there's no more time!

Stop this pain, he's just confessed to everything
Take him from here to a place to execute
Now burn him!

In the Lord's year 1480
I, the witch, was sent to Hades
In the Lord's year 1480
I, the witch, was sent to Hell
