The 7th Day Of July 1777 Lyrics - In Concert 1987: Abigail - King Diamond

Count De LaFey 

Uncovered his cheating wife 

Nine months of loving and sharing 

Oh, it was a bastard child 

How could he have been so blind? 

No bastard baby 

Will inherit what's mine 

Another one of her affairs 

Had left him in despair 

So he pushed her down the stairs to die 

"No", she cried 

In 1777, on the 7th day of July 

The Countess broke her neck 

And the embryo came out dead 

Then he burned his beloved wife 

And the embryo he gave a name 

Abigail you must rest in shame, rest in shame 

Obsessed 

With a strange idea 

He wanted to mummify 

The girl for the future to find and he did 

So he pushed her down the stairs to die 

"No" She cried 

In 1777, on the 7th day of July
