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 name 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

There I took her life

Met her on the mountain

Stabbed her with my knife

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

This time tomorrow

Reckon where I'll be

Hadn't ha' been for Greyson

I'd been in Tennessee

Well now boy

Hang down your head and cry (Tom Dooley)

Hang down your head and cry (Poor boy)

Well a, hang down your head and cry (Tom Dooley)

Poor boy, you're bound to die

Hang down your head and cry (Tom Dooley)

Hang down your head and cry

Hang down your head and cry (Tom Dooley)

Poor boy, you're bound to die

Down in some lonesome valley

Hanging from a white oak tree

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

Well now boy

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

Poor boy, you're bound to

Die
