Molly Leigh

[Verse 1]
In the 18th century
There was a strange old woman named Molly Leigh
Labelled a witch cause she rarely went to church
And hit every branch down on the ugly tree
She lived alone just outside of Burslem
Her only friend was her pet raven
It gave her powers of the underworld
Spied for her, or so we're told

[Chorus]
One grave stands out from the rest
It’s north to south, not east to west
Come to St John's and see
Here lies Molly Leigh
People say to this day
Her ghost is never far away
The kids still sing "You can't catch me!"
As they dance round the tomb of Molly Leigh

[Verse 2]
And after Molly had passed away
She was seen in town, so the locals say
All their misfortune was blamed on her
No thanks to the backwards Reverend Spencer
Her body was exhumed, and staked through the heart
The tomb was moved 90 degrees
Her raven thrown in with her to die
To trap the spirit of poor Molly Leigh

[Chorus]
One grave stands out from the rest
It’s north to south, not east to west
Come to St John's and see
Here lies Molly Leigh
People say to this day
Her ghost is never far away
The kids still sing "You can't catch me!"
As they dance round the tomb of Molly Leigh

[Bridge]
The sun goes down on the mother town
Maybe you'll see the ghost of Molly Leigh
The beer turns sour in the witching hour
It might just be the ghost of Molly Leigh
The sun goes down on the mother town
Maybe you'll see the ghost of Molly Leigh
The beer turns sour in the witching hour
It might just be the ghost of Molly Leigh
Or did they lie
To justify
Intolerance
And ignorance
In the potteries, outcasts like me
Raise a glass to Molly Leigh

[Chorus]
One grave stands out from the rest
It's north to south not east to west
Come to St John's and see
Here lies Molly Leigh
People say to this day
Her ghost is never far away
The kids still sing "You can't catch me!"
As they dance round the tomb of Molly Leigh

[Outro]
[?] to old Molly Leigh
