Oh my, oh myWhat a wretched lifeI was born on the dayThat my poor mother diedI was cut from her bellyWith a Stanley knifeMy daddy did a jigWith the drunk midwifeWho's that yonder all in flamesDraggin' behind him a sack of chainsWho's that yonder all in flamesUp jumped the devil and he staked his claimOh poor heartI was doomed from the startDoomed to playThe villain's partI was the baddest JohnnyIn the apple cartMy blood was blackerThan the cheapest of a dead nun's heartWho's that millin' on the courthouse stepsNailin' my face to the hitchin' fenceWho's that millin' on the courthouse stepsUp jumped the devil and off we creptOh no, oh noWhere could I goWith my hump of troubleAnd my sack of woeTo the digsAnd the deserts of MexicoWhere my neck was safeFrom the lynchin' ropeWho's that yonder laughin' at meLike I was the brunt of some hilarityWho's that yonder laughin' at me?Well up jumped the devil 1, 2, 3Ha ha ha ha haHow lucky we wereWe hit the cat houseAnd sampled their wharesWe got as drunkAs a couple of CzarsOne night I spat outMy lucky starsWho's that dancin' on the jail house roof?Stampin' on the rampin' with a cloven hoofWho's that dancin' on the jail house roof?Up jumped the devil and saidHere is your man and I got a proofOh no, oh no, don't goOh slow down JoeThe righteous partI straight as an arrowTake a walkAnd you'll find it too narrowToo narrowFor the likes of meWho's that hangin' from the gallow treeHis eyes are hollow but he looks like meNow who's that swingin' from the gallow treeUp jumped the devil and took my soul from meDown we go, down we go, down we goDown we go, down we go, down we goDown we go, down we go, down we go...
