1
Gather you all and listen here
2
I'll tell you a tale if you lend me an ear
3
I rode a horse through many a town
4
But the devil rode me down to the ground
5
I was to marry a very rich girl
6
I loved her as only I can
7
But the father was shot and his gold was stoled
8
And now I'm the devil's man, na na na
9
And now I sing a tail of woe
10
Through the bars of the county jail
11
I walked into the room one night
12
I found her mother and gun
13
Well the man was dead and I kneeled and cried
14
The sheriff ran in and said I'm holding you, son
15
Through the day I sing and play
16
For time is on my side
17
But when the moon and stars come out
18
I lay me down and cry
19
For the Saviour mar I lied
20
Now I will not have a ride
21
Beside the window the scaffold was made
22
On the morrow I will hang
