red tail ring - st. james hospital lyrics

Loading...

early one morning, past that st. james hospital
early one morning, morn’ in the month of may
when i looked through that window and spied a dear cowboy
and when i touched his hand, it was cold as the clay

set ye down by me, and hear my sad story
set ye down by me, and sing me a song
for my poor head is achin’ and my sad heart is breakin’
i’m a poor cowboy who knows he done wrong

send for that doctor, to heal up my body
send for that preacher, come and pray for my soul
for my poor head is achin’ and my sad heart is breakin’
i’m a poor cowboy and h+ll is my doom

get six friendly cowboys, come and carry my coffin
sixteen pretty maidens, come and sing me a song
and tell them to bring some of them sweet smelling roses
so they can’t smell me as ye bear me along

beat the drums slowly, and play the fife lowly
play the death march, as ye bear me along
throw the bunches of roses all over my coffin
so you can’t hear them clods as they fall
