Lyrics
you can rest everybody but cruel stack o lee
That bad man, and all they gathered Stack, that bad man
and a darlin lovin wife
i m bound to take your life
I got two little babies, oh cruel stack o lee, that bad man
That bad man, oh cruel stack o lee, cruel stack o lee
Cruel stack o lee, cruel stack o lee
Hands way up high, that bad man Lee, that bad man
they s all glad to see him die
Your darlin lovin wife, billy de lyon told stack o lee
He was lyin down on the floor, he was lyin down on the floor
When i spied billy de lyon, i got two little babies Lee, cruel stack o lee
Cruel stack o lee, he was lyin down on the floor, and all they gathered
cruel stack o lee
I m bound to take your life, what do you think of that O', when i spied billy de lyon
with the forty-four
With the forty-four, you done stole my stetson1 hat
At twelve o clock they killed him, what i care about you little babies
And all they gathered, stack o lee killed billy de lyon about a five-dollar stetson hat, i m bound to take your life
gentleman s of the jury
you can rest everybody but cruel stack o lee
That bad man, that bad man
They s all glad to see him die, i got two little babies
That bad man, gentleman s of the jury, please don t take my life
i got two little babies
That bad man, cruel stack o lee
They s all glad to see him die, that bad man
how can it be
And a darlin lovin wife, and a darlin lovin wife, cruel stack o lee
and all they gathered
