The Legend Of Tom Dooley
The Legend Of Tom Dooley
Performed by The Kingston Trio
Through out history
There have been many songs
Written about the eternal triangle
This next one tells the story of Mr. Grayson
A beautiful woman and a condemed 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
There I took her life
Met her on the mountain
Stabbed her with my knife
This time tomorrow, reckon where I'll be
Hadn't it been for Grayson
I'd been in Tennesse
This time tomorrow, reckon where I'll be
Down in some lonesome valley
Hanging on a white oak tree
