Tom Dooley

Hang down your head Tom Dooley

Hang Down your head and cry

Hang Down your head Tom Dooley

Poor boy you're bound to die

I met her on the mountain

And there I took her life

I met her on the mountain

And stabbed her with my knife

Oh hang down your head Tom Dooley

Hang Down your head and cry

Hang Down your head Tom Dooley

Poor boy you're bound to die

This time tomorrow

I reckon where I'll be

If it hadn't a been for Grayson

I'd a been in Tennessee

So hang down your head Tom Dooley

Hang Down your head and cry

Hang Down your head Tom Dooley

Poor boy you're bound to die

This time Tomorrow

I reckon where I'll be

Down in some lonesome valley

Hanging from a wide oak tree

Well hang down your head Tom Dooley

Hang Down your head and cry

Hang Down your head Tom Dooley

Poor boy you're bound to die

Oh poor boy you're bound to die
