Please grant my last requestnI really must confessnI'm only in this messnBecause of TambourinenShe was the girl I knewnSweet as the morning dewnIn me she turned the screwnAnd turned me loosenWe were so wild and proudnAlways caught hanging outnOne night we'd bring the townnOn that crazy juicenWe tasted every sinnTil the law came crashing innNow I'm doing 9 - 10nIn the county pennnShe was a wild galnWith that hemp hanging downnShe took away my frownnAnd made me sing the bluesnI was an honest mannUntil I met trouble tamnShe told me everythingnI told the tambourinennMr. JailernWon't you set me freenI'm only guiltynOf loving TambourinenAnd if I ever donSee blue skies somedaynI'm gonna hestitatenTo do it all again
