歌詞
(口白)Throughout history there have been many songs
written about the eternal triangle.
This next one tells the story of a Mr. Grayson a beautiful woman
and a condemned man named Tom Dooley.
When the sun rises tomorrow Tom Dooley must hang.
* 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, and there I took her life,
I met her on the mountain
And stabbed her with my knife.
(Repeat *)
This time tomorrow, reckon where I'll be?
Hadn't been for Grayson
I'd been in Tennessee.
(Repeat *)
This time tomorrow, reckon where I'll be?
Down in some lonesome valley,
Hanging on a white oak tree.
