Bring me my pistol

Please rouse the boss

I wanna kill everybody

Won't be a poor boy lost

Poor boy lost

Poor boy lost

Poor boy lost

On a Monday I was arrested

On a Tuesday I was tried

An the jury found me guilty
An I hung my head an cried

Lord an cried

Lord an cried

Lord an cried

Lord an cried

'Till I asked the judge
What will be my fine

Here's a pick and a shovel
Get down Joe Brown's coal mine

Coal mine coal mine

Coal mine coal mine

Coal mine

Be light on me judge

I ain't been here befo'

Give ya ninety nine years
Don't come back here no mo'

No mo' no mo'

No mo' no mo'

How long

Be light on me judge

I ain't been here befo'

Give ya ninety nine years
Don't come back here no mo'

No mo' no mo'

No mo'

How lord

No mo'
