[00:06.52]Listen if you will, I have a tale to tell.
[00:12.49]Of an unfortunate man, the name of Solomon Snell,
[00:18.90]And the philosophy he should have embraced,
[00:24.91]That says no matter what you do,
[00:27.97]You'll never be safe.
[00:31.16]
[00:33.78]Ring the bell, ring the bell
[00:37.61]For Solomon Snell.
[00:41.12]Too much trust,
[00:43.84]Is the road to Hell
[00:47.14]
[00:50.33]Rightfully nervous, he took every precaution,
[00:56.76]He paid three armed men to drive him to Boston.
[01:03.05]But wouldn't you know it, he was broke on arrival.
[01:09.06]His own men robbed him and took off in style.
[01:15.36]
[01:18.51]So he wanted to marry a girl who was true,
[01:24.96]And on the basis of her name he would fidelity prove.
[01:31.28]She had a handsome cousin she would visit in Charlotte.
[01:37.64]Well she said he was her cousin,
[01:40.71]The brazen harlot.
[01:43.71]
[01:46.54]Ring the bell, ring the bell
[01:50.66]For Solomon Snell.
[01:53.90]He played it safe,
[01:56.56]And it didn't end well.
[01:59.44]
[02:00.12]Ring the bell, ring the bell
[02:03.53]For Solomon Snell.
[02:06.29]Too much trust
[02:09.19]Is the road to Hell.
[02:12.02]
[02:15.50]He caught yellow fever, down Charleston way.
[02:22.13]Before you knew it, they were digging his grave.
[02:28.11]But he was most terrified of being buried alive.
[02:34.42]And so to his finger a bell was tied.
[02:40.58]
[02:43.03]You see Snell had arranged for a man to be paid,
[02:50.56]To listen for the bell when he was buried in his grave.
[02:56.55]But the man got drunk, and when the bell did sound,
[03:02.79]Solomon lived but he stayed in the ground.
[03:08.93]
[03:12.36]No one heard a sound.
[03:18.99]Ring the bell, ring the bell
[03:22.43]For Solomon Snell.
[03:25.37]Too much trust is the road to hell.
[03:30.30]
[03:31.48]Ring the bell, ring the bell
[03:34.68]For Solomon Snell.
[03:38.00]You can play it safe,
[03:40.82]But it wont end well.
[03:43.63]
[03:46.63]You can play it safe,
[03:52.91]But it wont end well.
[03:59.45]You can play it safe,
[04:05.05]But it wont end well.
