John Hardy - Uncle Tupelo

John Hardy he was a desperate little man

Carried two guns every day

Shot a man down by the West Virginia line

They saw John Hardy get away

They saw John Hardy get away

They cornered John Hardy on the Tombstone bridge

He thought that he was free

'Til the deputy sheriff came and grabbed him by the arm

Said "Johnny come along with me"

"Johnny come along with me"

John Hardy he stood inside his cell

Tears running down his eyes

Said "I've seen the death of many a poor boy

Now I'm ready to die

Now I'm ready to die"

Well I've been to the east and I've been to the west

I've been the whole world round

I've been to the north and I've been to the south

Now I'm going to my hanging ground

I'm going to my hanging ground
