	作曲 : Carpenter
	John Wilkes Booth was a southern man
	Born of an actor in Maryland
	Bound for fortune on a gas-lit stage
	Bound to die at a tender age
	Washington to Baltimore
	He played the bills and he slept with whores
	And he burned inside with a hatred deep
	For the man who caused the south to weep
	Young Abe Lincoln wasn't young no more
	Tired old man when he won the war
	And he dreamed at night of his death by the hands
	Of the bitter world and a faceless man
	And he saw his body in a ghastly dream
	Draped in black while his widow screamed
	Two silver dollars on his eyelids lay
	Abraham Lincoln has died today
	And they said there were five and they said there were ten
	Some say there was never more than just one man
	Oh, it's awful to see Mr. Lincoln dead
	In the name of God and Dixie, in the name of God and Dixie Land
	John Wilkes Booth and his band of men
	They'd failed before but would try again
	When Good Friday dawned with a fickle sun
	Then Booth declared the day had come
	And the word was passed and the guns were brought
	Down to Mary Sarrat's boarding house
	Sealed in a note, Booth named just four
	But the gallows would sway with many more
	And they said there were five and they said there were ten
	Some say there was never more than just one man
	Oh, it's awful to see Mr. Lincoln dead
	In the name of God and Dixie, in the name of God and Dixie Land
	John Wilkes Booth went to his grave
	With a bullet in his neck and a broken leg
	A patriot and his fantasy
	Of redemption, grace and bravery
	And those who were hanged and those who spent
	Their lives behind a jailer's fence
	Only Booth could have proved them free
	Of the taint of the conspiracy
	For they said there were five and they said there were ten
	Some said there was never more than just one man
	Oh, it's awful to see Mr. Lincoln dead
	In the name of God and Dixie, in the name of God and Dixie Land
	In the name of God and Dixie, in the name of God and Dixie Land
