Chorus:
Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Hang down your head and cry
Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Poor boy your bound to die
I met her on the mountain
And there I took her life
Met her on the mountain
Stabbed her with my knife
Chorus:
This time tomorrow
Reckon where I'd be
Hadn't been for Grayson
I'd been in Tennessee
This time tomorrow
Reckon where I'll be
Down in some lonesome valley
Hanging from a white oak tree
Chorus:
Yes, Poor boy your bound to die
