    Story Behind the Song
    A pastiche of sorts. Kind of an alternate history thing: What if Black Sabbath hailed from Birmingham Alabama instead of Birmingham England?

    Lyrics
    They say they're going to hang me
    for crimes against the North.
    Called said "crimes" atrocities
    beneath the acts of war.
    Mothers call for vengeance
    and should widows get their wish,
    the dawn will answer all their prayers;
    I’ll swing from Owl Creek Bridge.

    I harbor only one regret,
    my woman blonde and fair:
    I'll never see again your face,
    your wanton blue eye stare.
    And our dearest children,
    how I'd like to see them play,
    at least a single time
    before the dawning of the day.

    No remorse, I fought the North and kept my southern pride.
    I stood there in the face of death and saw my brothers die.
    I hope to keep my dignity, not to dance and twitch
    for some Yankee dog's amusement
    when I swing from Owl Creek Bridge.
