grayson & whitter - tom dooley lyrics

Loading...

[chorus]
hang your head, tom dooley
hang your head and cry
you hung poor laura foster
you know you’re bound to die

[verse 1]
you took her on the hillside
as god almighty knows
you took her on the hillside
and there, you hid her clothes

[verse 2]
you took her by the roadside
where you begged to be excused
took her by the roadside
where there, you hid her shoes

[verse 3]
you took her on the hillside
to make her your wife
took her on the hillside
where there, you took her life

[chorus]
hang your head, tom dooley
hang your head and cry
you hung poor laura foster
you know you’re bound to die

[verse 4]
take down my old violin
play it all you please
this time tomorrow
it’ll be of no use to me

[chorus]
hang your head, tom dooley
hang your head and cry
you hung poor laura foster
you know you’re bound to die

[verse 5]
i dug a grave four feet long
i dug it three feet deep
rolled old cold clay o’er her
and tromped it with my feet

[chorus]
hang your head, tom dooley
hang your head and cry
you hung poor laura foster
you know you’re bound to die

[verse 6]
this world, and one more
then, where you reckon i’ll be
if it hadn’ta been for grayson
i’da been in tennessee

[chorus]
hang your head, tom dooley
hang your head and cry
you hung poor laura foster
you know you’re bound to die
