charley crockett - the poplar tree lyrics

Loading...

i’m holding my head up
i’m not gonna cry
or tell them that i need her
and that without her i would die
i’m not gonna argue
they won’t listen to me
i’m just gonna stay right here
under the poplar tree

let me tell you a story
it happened this way
it was born out of longing
in a man that’s gone astray
i’ve been to the valley
in the shadow of death
i’ve crossed many rivers
wearing a scar on my chest

can i outrun this heartache?
a man, he sure can try
i gave my all to that woman
then she turned around and said goodbye

i was in a high desert
dell city was the town
that’s when my luck turned south
this ol’ boy started showin’ out
he k!lled the clerk and a young girl
who was only standin’ there
he looked at me real peculiar
with the bullets flying through the air
i lit out in a hurry
he went out in a he+rs+
heartbroken and wanted
couldn’t tell you which one of ’em is worse

he must’ve been real important
’cause his posse caught up to me
i was holding my head up
when they hung me from a poplar tree
yes, they hung me from a poplar tree
