Lomax - Frank Warner) 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 There I took her life Met her on the mountain And stubbed her with my knife. Oh, boys now 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 Hadn't've been for that Greysome I'd've been in Tennessee. Oh, boys now 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. --- Instrumental --- This time tomorrow Reckon where I'll be Down in some lonesome valley A swinging from a wide oak tree. Oh, boys now 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. 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...
