Well, I hear a city high gettin' ideas Ain't nothin' but a fool to live like this Out all night, been runnin' wild Woman sittin' home with a month-old child Dang me, dang me They all take a rope and hang me High from the highest tree Woman, would you wait for me? Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-do-ba-ba-bom One more time Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-do-ba-ba-bom Just sittin' round drinkin' with the rest of the guys Six rounds a bottle and I bought five Spent the groceries and half the rent Like fourteen dollars havin' twenty-seven cents Dang me, dang me They all take a rope and hang me High from the highest tree Woman, would you wait for me? Ba-ba-ba-ba-do-ba-ba-bom One more time Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-do-ba-ba-bom They say roses are red and violets are purple Sugar's sweet and so is maple syrup I'm the seventh out of seven sons My baby was a pistol, I'm the son of a gun Dang me, dang me They all take a rope and hang me High from the highest tree Woman, would you wait for me? Ba-ba-ba-ba-do-ba-ba-bom Ba-ba-ba-ba-do-ba-ba-bom
