Lyrics:
Oh Mamma, I'm in fear for my life from the long arm of the law Law man has put an end to my running And I'm so far from my home Oh Mamma, 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 This'll be the end today Of the wanted man Oh Mama, I've been years on the lam And had a high price on my head Lawman said 'Get him dead or alive' And it's for sure he'll see me dead Dear Mama I can hear you cryin' 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 finally found me The renegade who had it made Retrieved for a bounty Never more to go astray The judge'll have revenge today Of the wanted man
