| Bentley said to craig 'let him have it chris' | |
| They still don't know today just what he meant by this | |
| Craig fired the pistol, but was too young to swing | |
| So the police took bentley and the very next thing | |
| Let him dangle | |
| Let him dangle | |
| Bentley had surrendered, he was under arrest, | |
| When he gave chris craig that fatal request | |
| Craig shot sidney miles, he took bentley's word | |
| The prosecution claimed as they charged them with murder | |
| Let him dangle | |
| Let him dangle | |
| They say derek bentley was easily led | |
| Well what's that to the woman that sidney miles wed | |
| Though guilty was the verdict, and craig had shot him dead | |
| The gallows were for bentley and still she never said | |
| Let him dangle | |
| Let him dangle | |
| Well it's hard to imagine it's the times that have changed | |
| When there's a murder in the kitchen that is brutal and strange | |
| If killing anybody is a terrible crime | |
| Why does this bloodthirsty chorus come round from time to time | |
| Let him dangle | |
| Not many people thought that bentley would hang | |
| But the word never came, the phone never rang | |
| Outside wandsworth prison there was horror and hate | |
| As the hangman shook bentley's hand to calculate his weight | |
| Let him dangle | |
| From a welfare state to society murder | |
| Bring 'back the noose' is always heard | |
| Whenever those swine are under attack | |
| But it won't make you even | |
| It won't bring him back | |
| Let him dangle | |
| Let him dangle (string him up) |
