Left My Gal In The Mountains |
I left my gal in the mountains I left her standing in the rain |
I went down to the depot caught myself a midnight train |
Made my way down to Georgia land it in a gambling town |
Got myself in trouble cause I shot a county sheriff down |
The jury read my verdict murder in the first degree |
The judge said take that prisoner to the penitentiary |
They put the handcuffs on me put me on the pullman train |
Took me to Atlanta tied me to a ball and chain |
I left my gal in the mountains I left her standing all alone |
Last night I dreamed I got a letter saying baby won’t you please come home |
She told me that she loved me said that she loved me true |
Then I dreamed I wrote a letter saying I’m a coming home to you |
Then I awoke up this morning lyin' in Atlanta jail |
No one here to love me no one to go my bail |
Prison bars all around me the guard walking by my door |
I’m so sad and lonely cause I’ll never see my gal no more |
I’ll never see my gal no more |
