Verse 1

A cart rolled through the town
And people all around, yeah
Gathered for the burning of the witch  
They grit their teeth in anger
They raise their arms in fear
The burning stake was ready for that bitch  

Chorus

Singing, "Burn her, burn her
Burn her to the ground"
Singing, "Burn her sins, burn her pride
Burn her till she dies"

Verse 2

They tie her to the stake
People shout abuse
They wanna hear the sizzling of her flesh  
She looks at them and curses
Each one of them in town, yeah
The execution flame put to the ground  

Chorus

Singing, "Burn her, burn her
Burn her to the ground"
Singing, "Burn her sins, burn her pride
Burn her till she dies"

Verse 3

You cannot see her body
Smoke is all around, yeah
All you hear is the sizzling of her flesh  
Fire burns so quickly
Smoke begins to clear
Preacher man stood up, announced her dead  

Chorus

Singing, "Burn her, burn her
Burn her to the ground"
Singing, "Burn her sins, burn her pride
Burn her till she dies"
Yeah, singing, "Burn her, burn her
Burn her to the ground"
Singing, "Burn her sins", da-da-da-da-da, "burn her pride
Burn her till she dies"

Outro

Burn her, oh, yeah, yeah, singing, "Burn her"
