I'm goin' to kill myself oh, Lordy me
Going to kill myself, you wait and see
Gonna whittle myself a little wooden gun
To blow my brains out just for fun
And kill myself oh, Lordy me
My good gal, she's gone and done me wrong
Yes, she walked right away with another man
Well, she walked right away with another man
And I'll get even with her if I can
I'm gonna kill myself oh, Lordy me
I'm goin' to hang myself, oh, Lordy me
I'm goin' to hang myself, you wait and see
Goin' get me a spoon and sewing thread
Hang myself 'til I am dead
And kill myself, oh, Lordy me
I'm going to drown myself, oh Lordy me
Going to drown myself, you wait and see
Gonna to jump in the rivеr 'bout two inches deep
A-Lay right down and go to sleep
And drown myself, oh, Lordy me
I'm going to lay with my hеad on the railroad track (on that cold steel)
Going to lay with my head on the railroad track
Going to lay with my head on the railroad track
And a train come along I'm gonna jerk it back
And kill myself, oh Lordy me
I know my gal will weep I know she'll moan
Yeah, I know my gal will weep I know she'll moan
Well I know she'll weep and I know she'll moan
Hopefully the rest of these boys alone
I'm gonna kill myself, oh Lordy me
