lyrics

He said Im only 10 years old
I did never mean to hurt no one
and the lawyers whispered in his ear
be careful what you say you've done

and the mother whispered in his ear
If my boy had made it even to three
he'd be twice what you are worth
as her tears sooner swallowed her words

But Ill take you back
to that haunted railway track
to waltz with his ghost, down in Walton
So you feel her pain
for her sons tortured name
and the murder won't be forgotten

The judges words were weakly written
two 10 year old boys to be left not living
dead in the clasp of custodies hands
till they were deemed to be of man
a punishment pointlessly given

But Ill take you back
to that haunted railway track
to waltz with his ghost, down in walton
So you feel her pain
for her sons tortured name
and the murder won't be forgotten
