Lyrics
Forgive me, forgive me Lord for what I've done Shot a man down in Oxford, Mississippi Gonna leave another fatherless son ♪ I'm an honest man I know where I stand Money's been my downfall I'd gamble away A week's worth of pay If I had a lousy dime at all But there ain't a bet I ain't settled yet Had to beg, borrow, steal I'd never shied away If there's a price to pay Never been forced to kill Forgive me, forgive me Lord for what I've done Shot a man down in Oxford, Mississippi Gonna leave another fatherless son Forgive me, forgive me Lord for what I've done Shot a man down in Oxford, Mississippi Gonna leave another fatherless son Down in the den I was ownin' ten Tryin' to make 21 Called it twice And right before my eyes Every penny that I had was gone The man came around He put his money down So boys spends with me Pats my back Says I like you jack But ain't nothin' in the world for free Forgive me, forgive me Lord for what I've done Shot a man down in Oxford, Mississippi Gonna leave another fatherless son Forgive me, forgive me Lord for what I've done Shot a man down in Oxford, Mississippi Gonna leave another fatherless son ♪ So there's a man in town When ya cut him down You won't owe me no more So I took the gun When the deed was done Dropped down to the floor Forgive me, forgive me Lord for what I've done Shot a man down in Oxford, Mississippi Gonna leave another fatherless son Forgive me, forgive me Lord for what I've done Shot a man down in Oxford, Mississippi Gonna leave another fatherless son Forgive me, forgive me Lord for what I've done Shot a man down in Oxford, Mississippi Gonna leave another fatherless son Forgive me, forgive me Lord for what I've done Shot a man down in Oxford, Mississippi Gonna leave another fatherless son
