Lyrics:

Oh momma I'm in fear for my life from the long arm of the law
Lawman has put an end to my running and I'm so far from my home
Oh momma I can hear you a'crying you're so scared and all alone
Hangman is comin' down from the gallows and I don't have very long

The jig is up the news is out they've finally found me
The renegade who had it made retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray
This will be the end today of the wanted man

Oh momma I've been years on the lam
And had a high price on my head
Lawman said get him dead or alive
Now it's for sure he'll see me dead

Dear momma I can hear you a'crying
You're so scared and all alone
Hangman is coming down from the gallows
And I don't have very long

The jig is up, the news is out
They finally found me
The renegade who had it made

Retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray
The judge will have revenge today
On the wanted man

Oh Momma,
I'm in fear for my life from the long arm of the law
Hangman is coming down from the gallows
And I don't have very long

The jig is up, the news is out
They finally found me
The renegade who had it made

Retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray
This'll be the end today
Of the wanted man
The wanted man

And I don't wanna go,
Oh no
Dont let 'em take me
No (2X)
