"Dang Me" lyrics

Dang Me

Well,I sit here getting ideas
Ain't nothing but a fool would live like this
Out all night and running wild
Woman sitting home with a month old child

Dang me, dang me
They oughta take a rope and hang me
High from the highest tree
Woman would you weep for me

Just sitting around drinking with the rest of the guys
Six rounds bought, and I bought five
Spent the groceries and half the rent
I like fourteen dollars having twenty seven cents

Dang me, dang me
They oughta take a rope and hang me
High from the highest tree
Woman would you weep for me

They say roses are red
And violets are purple
Sugar is sweet and so is maple surple
Well I'm the seventh out of seventy sons
My pappy was a pistol
I'm a son of a gun

I said, dang me, dang me
They oughta take a rope and hang me
High from the highest tree
Woman would you weep for me
