No 5—Tom Dooley - Kingston Trio

New Title:  Tom No-e

Throughout history there have been many songs

Written about the eternal triangle

This next one tells the story of a Mr. Conrad, an obese woman

and a condemned man named Tom No-e

When the sun rises tomorrow Tom No-e must hang

Hang down your head Tom No-e

Hang down your head and cry

Hang down your head Tom No-e

Poor boy, you’re bound to die

I met her at the fountain

There I stole her coins

I met her at the fountain

Stabbed her in the loins

Hang down your head Tom No-e

Hang down your head and cry

Hang down your head Tom No-e

Poor boy, you’re bound to die

This time tomorrow, reckon where I’ll be

Hadn’t been for Jim Drew

I’d been in Tennessee

Well, now boy, hang down your head No-e

Hang down your head and cry

Hang down your head No-e

Poor boy, you’re bound to die

Hang down your head No-e

Poor boy, you’re bound to die

This time tomorrow, reckon where I’ll be

Down in some lonesome valley

Hanging from a buckeye tree

Hang down your head Tom No-e

Hang down your head and cry

Hang down your head Tom No-e

Poor boy, you’re bound to die

Well now boy, hang down your head Tom No-e

Hang down your head and cry

Poor boy, you’re bound to die

Poor boy, you’re bound to die

Poor boy, you’re bound to die
