Fingers Crossed Lyrics - Ian Hunter

I was pressed into service 

thru no fault of my own 

I was dragged from the gutter 

by nefarious rogues 

I dont like to dwell upon 

what happened to me 

from the land of the living 

to the land of the lost 

just a pawn in the system 

oh oh got my fingers crossed 

yea

I seen skulls I seen crossbones, 

as near as I can see 

I felt the cold cloak of terror 

the ????.and ???.... got us thru 

I ????for property 

I am bold am I not 

In a land unforgiving 

from the land of the lost 

With my faith in the balance 

oh oh with my fingers crosses 

Hang me high hang me high boy 

Hang me high hang me high boy 

Hang me high hang me high boy 

Hang me high hang me high boy 

yea

I danced with the elements 

on a South China sea 

I seen gold I seen silver 

the fruits of our victories 

Guilty or innocent 

I ask this because 

On the steps of a scaffold 

am I not to be lost 

So I made my confession oh oh with my fingers crossed 

Hang me high hang me high boy 

Hang me high hang me high boy 

Hang me high hang me high boy 

Hang me high hang me high boy 

Far away far away boy 

far away far away boy 

far away far away boy 

far away far away boy 

So I make my confession 

with my fingers crossed
