anne kirkpatrick - john hardy lyrics
[verse 1]
john hardy he was a desperate little man
carried two guns everyday
shot a man on the west virginia line
lord, you oughta seen john hardy gettin’ away
john hardy he got to be so rich
thought that he could be free
but up came a man and took him by the arms
saying, “johnny come along with me”
[verse 2]
john hardy he had a little pretty girl
the dress that she wore was blue
she came skipping through the old jail hail saying
“[?] i’ll be true to you”
john hardy he had another little girl
the dress that she wore was red
she fall in love with john hardy through his hanging ground
saying, “[?] i’d rather be dead”
[verse 3]
i’ve been to the east and i’ve been to the west
i’ve been this wide world around
i’ve been to the river and i’ve been back down
and now i’m standing on my hanging ground
go dig my grave so long and wide
go dig it wide and deep
put a picture of a pretty girl and my feet
and 45 and bayonet my head
