(spoken)
Oh Mama, I’m in fear for my life
from the long arm of the law
Law man has put an end to my running
and I’m so far from my home
Oh Mama, I can hear you crying
you’re so scared and all alone
Hangman is coming down from the gallows
and I don’t have very long
Chorus:
C D F G
The jig is up,
C D F G
the news is out
C D F G F
They finally found me
C D F G
The renegade
C D F G
who had it made
C D F G F
Retrieved for a bounty
F
Never more to go astray
G
This’ll be the end today
D F G D F G F
Of the wanted man
