I Killed Sally's Lover |
| Somebody get my shotgun |
| Somebody get my blade |
| Sally’s been layin' with another man |
| And he’s sleeping in my place |
| Somebody get my shotgun |
| Gonna shoot him sure as rain |
| You can run as fast as you want to boy |
| I’ll kill you just the same |
| Somebody get my pocket blade |
| Gonna cut him don’t you know |
| You can try to hide all you want to boy |
| There ain’t nowhere to go |
| Somebody get my shotgun |
| Somebody get my blade |
| Sally’s been layin' with another man |
| And he’s sleeping in my place |
| Now Sally don’t go thinkin' |
| That you got off so clean |
| I’d kill you too if I had the nerve |
| But I just ain’t that mean |
| So I go and get my murder tools |
| I throw them in the lake |
| Gonna steal me an automobile |
| And drive so far away |
| Now I am a fugitive |
| I’m always on the run |
| Sally told the policeman |
| Exactly what I’d done |
| I went and got my shotgun |
| I went and got my blade |
| Killed poor Sally’s lover |
| And I put him in the grave |
| Now all you ramblin' fellas |
| You listen close to me |
| That woman gonna bring you pain |
| Your heart is gonna bleed |
| But it ain’t worth the trouble |
| The sufferin' or the grief |
| A bleeding heart is better than the penitentiary |
| I killed Sally’s lover |
| One dark and dreary day |
| Sally got another |
| And I got sent away |
| Somebody get my shotgun |
| Somebody get my blade |
| Sally’s been laying with another man |
| And I set him in his grave |
