[length: 02:39]
[00:14.72]Somebody get my shotgun
[00:16.49]Somebody get my blade
[00:17.86]Sally’s been layin’ with another man
[00:19.62]And he’s sleeping in my place
[00:21.63]Somebody get my shotgun
[00:23.25]Gonna shoot him sure as rain
[00:24.60]You can run as fast as you want to boy
[00:26.51]I’ll kill you just the same
[00:28.64]Somebody get my pocket blade
[00:30.00]Gonna cut him don’t you know
[00:31.64]You can try to hide all you want to boy
[00:33.42]There ain’t nowhere to go
[00:35.37]Somebody get my shotgun
[00:36.92]Somebody get my blade
[00:38.64]Sally’s been layin’ with another man
[00:40.42]And he’s sleeping in my place
[00:56.03]Now Sally don’t go thinkin’
[00:57.61]That you got off so clean
[00:59.44]I’d kill you too if I had the nerve
[01:01.48]But I just ain’t that mean
[01:02.90]So I go and get my murder tools
[01:04.88]I throw them in the lake
[01:06.39]Gonna steal me an automobile
[01:08.15]And drive so far away
[01:10.14]Now I am a fugitive
[01:11.69]I’m always on the run
[01:13.35]Sally told the policeman
[01:15.01]Exactly what I’d done
[01:16.90]I went and got my shotgun
[01:18.45]I went and got my blade
[01:20.22]Killed poor Sally’s lover
[01:21.72]And I put him in the grave.
[01:30.94]Now all you ramblin’ fellas
[01:53.18]You listen close to me
[01:54.74]That woman gonna bring you pain
[01:56.58]Your heart is gonna bleed
[01:58.24]But it ain’t worth the trouble
[01:59.94]The sufferin’ or the grief
[02:01.69]A bleeding heart is better than the penitentiary
[02:05.39]I killed Sally’s lover
[02:06.95]One dark and dreary day
[02:08.54]Sally got another
[02:10.21]And I got sent away
[02:12.33]Somebody get my shotgun
[02:13.96]Somebody get my blade
[02:15.55]Sally’s been laying with another man
[02:17.15]And I set him in his grave
