Well here I sit high gettin` ideas Ain`t nothin` but a fool would live like this
Out all night and runnin` wild woman`s sittin` home with a month old child
Dang me dang me they oughta take rope and hang me
High from the highest tree woman would you weep for me?
Just sittin` round drinkin` with the rest of guys six rounds bought and I bought five
I Spent the groceries and a half the rent I like fourteen dollars havin` twenty seven cents
Dang me dang me they oughta take rope and hang me
High from the highest tree woman would you weep for me?
Roses`re red and violets`re purple and sugar`s sweet and so is maple syrple
Well I`m seventh out of seven sons My pappy`s a pistol I`m a son of a gun
Dang me dang me they oughta take rope and hang me
High from the highest tree woman would you weep for me?
