Woman Of Salem Lyrics - Yoko Ono

1692, six in the morning of June 

Sally Kegley, age thirty-four 

Closed her diary she'd kept for two scores 

Salem, Salem, witches must be hung 

Let my daughter burn my book 

Let her learn to sew and cook 

Teach her not to read but weave 

Ask her not to speak but weep 

Salem, Salem, witches will be hung 

Sally Kegley knows how to cure the ill 

Sally Kegley sees through us at will 

Salem, Salem, witches will be hung 

All the town's people rushing to the hill 

Their eyes shining, ready for the kill 

Sally's flesh bound to the cross 

Her eyes searching for the ones who are close 

Oh, why? Oh, why? Oh, why? Oh, why? 

Oh, why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? 

Help! Help! Help! Help! 

Help! Help! Help! Help! 

Must kill, must hang, must kill, must hang 

Must kill, must hang, must kill, must hang 

Must kill, must hang, must kill, must hang 

Must kill, must hang
