1
O My O My
2
What a wretched life
3
I was born on the day
4
That my poor mother died
5
I was cut from her belly
6
With a stanley knife
7
My daddy did a jig
8
With the drunk midwife
9
Who's that younder all in flames
10
Dragging behind him a sack of chains
11
Who's that younder all in flames
12
Up jumped the Devil and he staked his claim
13
O poor heart
14
I was doomed from the start
15
Doomed to play
16
The villians part
17
I was the baddest Johnny
18
In the apple cart
19
My blood was blacker
20
Than the of a dead nun's heart
21
Who's that milling on the courthouse steps
22
Nailing my face to the hitching fence
23
Who's that milling on the courthouse steps
24
Up jumped the Devil and off he crept
25
O no O no
26
Where could I go
27
With my hump of trouble
28
And my sack of woe
29
To the digs and deserts of Mexico
30
Where my neck was safe from the lynching rope
31
Who's that younder laughing at me
32
Like I was the brunt of some hilarity
33
Who's that younder laughing at me
34
Up jumped the Devil 1, 2, 3
35
Ha-Ha Ha Ha
36
How lucky we were
37
We hit the cathouse
38
And sampled their whares
39
We got as drunk
40
As a couple of Czars
41
One night I spat out
42
My lucky stars
43
Who's that dancing on the jailhouse roof
44
Stamping on the ramping with a cloven hoof
45
Who's that dancing on the jailhouse roof
46
Up jumped the Devil and said "Here is your man and I got a proof"
47
O no don't go O no
48
O slow down Joe
49
The righteous part
50
I straight as an arrow
51
Take a walk
52
And you'll find it too narrow
53
Too narrow for the likes of me
54
Who's that hanging from the gallow tree
55
His eyes are hollow but he looks like me
56
Who's that swinging from the gallow tree
57
Up jumped the Devil and took my soul from me
58
Down we go Down we go Down we go
59
The Devil and me Down we go down down down
60
Hell fire and flames Down we go Down we go
61
To Eternity Down we go We go down down down
62
Down we go we go down down down
63
Down we go the Devil and me to Eternity
64
We go down down down down down ad inferno
