Tom Dooley

Hang your head Tom Dooley
Hang your head and cry
You killed little Laurie Foster
Poor boy you're bound to die

You met her on the mountain
There you took her life
You met her on the hillside
You stabbed her with a knife

Hang your head Tom Dooley
Hang your head and cry
You killed little Laurie Foster
Poor boy you're bound to die

This time tomorrow
Reckon where I'll be
Down in Gander's valley [?]
Hanging on a white oak tree

Hang your head Tom Dooley
Hang your hеad and cry
You killed little Laurie Fostеr
Poor boy you're bound to die

This time tomorrow
Reckon where I'll be
Hadn't been for Grayson
I'd a-been in Tennessee

Hang your head Tom Dooley
Hang your head and cry
You killed little Laurie Foster
Poor boy you're bound to die

You met her on the mountain
It was there I suppose
There you went and killed her
And then you hid her clothes

Hang your head Tom Dooley
Hang your head and cry
You killed little Laurie Foster
Poor boy you're bound to die

I'll take down the banjo
I'll pick it on my knee
By this time tomorrow
It'll be no use to me

Hang your head Tom Dooley
Hang your head and cry
You killed little Laurie Foster
Poor boy you're bound to die
