Forty Whacks (Prologue) Lyrics

[00:08.05] Lizzie borden took an ax
[00:23.25] Gave her mother 40 wacks
[00:34.85] When she saw what see had done
[00:46.38] Gave her father 41
[00:54.38] (Knock knock knock)
[00:55.75] I am Alice Russell i have lived in fall river a good many years
[01:01.78] All that time the Bordens have occupied the house next door
[01:05.38] I exchanged calls with miss Lizzie Borden regularly
[01:09.19] She always received me upstairs
[01:12.34] The names Bridget Sullivan
[01:13.74] thought i was some times called maggie by miss emma and miss lizzie
[01:17.18] It being the name of the previous girl
[01:20.16] I came to fall river4years ago have worked for the Bordens ever since
[01:24.83] My full name is emma L Borden
[01:28.18] The L is for Lenora
[01:30.33] I am the sister of miss Lizzie Borden
[01:32.86] I was just a trifle over 14 when my father married
[01:36.90] For the second time
[01:38.57] And i remember my mother very well
[01:41.33] My name is Lizzie Andrew borden
[01:45.06] Not elizabeth, lizzie
[01:48.37] Andrew
[01:50.21] After my father i was so crisened
[01:54.49] I am innocent
[01:56.24] I leave it ti my counsel to speak for me
[01:59.13]
