Grateful Dead - Tom Dooley lyrics

Killed poor Laura Foster, you know you're bound to die

Bury her on the hillside, make the people see

Put the coat over, tromp her with your feet

Hang your head Tom Dooley, hang your head and cry

Killed poor Laura Foster, don't you know your bound to die

Bury her on the hillside with other people's lives

Hang your head Tom Dooley, hang your head and cry

Killed poor Laurea Foster, don't you know you're bound to die

First time I went courting, pretty brave of me

Just to sing from her old oak tree

Hang your mama with kindness blame it on this morning
