Eddy Arnold - Tom Dooley lyrics

Hang down your head Tom Dooley

Hang down your head and cry

Hang down your head Tom Dooley

Poor boy you're bound to die.

I met her on the mountain

And there I took her life

I met her on the mountain

And stubbed her with my knife.

Hang down your head Tom Dooley

Hang down your head and cry

Hang down your head Tom Dooley

Poor boy you're bound to die.

This time tomorrow

Reckon where I'll be

If it hadn't been Fort Grason

I'd've been in Tennessee.

Hang down your head Tom Dooley

Hang down your head and cry

Hang down your head Tom Dooley

Poor boy you're bound to die.

This time tomorrow

Reckon where I'll be

In some lonesome valley

A hangin' on a white oak tree.

Hang down your head Tom Dooley

Hang down your head and cry

Hang down your head Tom Dooley

Poor boy you're bound to die...
