You wouldn’t leave my wife alone. |

Please don’t me find you, rascal, you. |
Please don’t let me find you, rascal, you! |
Please don’t let me find you |
'Cause you’ll leave this world behind you. |
I’ll be glad when you dead, you rascal, you! |
Ain’t no use to run, you rascal, you. |
Ain’t no use to run, you rascal, you. |
Ain’t no use to run, |
I done bought a Gatling gun, |
And you still having your fun, you rascal, you! |
I’m gonna kill you just for fun, you rascal, you! |
I’m gonna kill you just for fun, you rascal, you! |
I’m gonna kill you just for fun; |
The buzzards gonna have you when I’m done. |
I’ll be glad when you dead, you rascal, you! |
You done messed with my wife, you rascal, you! |
You done messed with my wife, you rascal, you! |
You done messed with my wife, |
And I’m gonna take your life. |
I’ll be glad when you dead, you rascal, you! |
