Stack O' Lee Blues

Stack O'Lee was a bad man, everybody know
 And when they seed Stack O'Lee comin', they'd give him the road
 He was my man, but he done me wrong
 Stack O'Lee Stack O'Lee, was so desperate and bad
 He'd take everything his women would bring and everything they had
 He was my man, but he's done me wrong
 Stack O'Lee's on the warpath, and you'd better run
 'Cause Stack O'Lee holds a bad man and he'll kill you just for fun
 He was my man, but he's done you wrong
 Stack O'Lee's in jail now, with his face turned to the wall
 Thirty women and old corn whiskey was the cause of it all
 He was my man, but he's done you wrong
 A hundred-dollar coffin and a eighty-dollar hack
 Carried him to the cemetery but it did not bring him back
 He was my man, but he's done me wrong
