lyrics

When I went to that house you said you'd be at,
I saw another gentleman, to him I tipped my hat,
I said gasoline n' kerosene you owe me money for,
You bad ol' broad you shot me down, and now you'll be no more

When I went to that house you said that you'd be,
You took one look into my eyes, and you began to flee,
And I said gasoline n' kerosene you owe me money for,
You bad ol' broad you shot me down, and now you'll be no more

Well when and what I left of that house I found you in,
I saw ten more gentlemen, in the sun their guns did glisten,
I said listen here you coppers that broad was fake to me,
I burned that house down to the ground, and with it her own sweet pea

Well...
Just before that lever did let my gallows swing,
I saw my aged mother a weepin' after me,
And I said gasoline n' kerosene I can't believe my sin,
My soul shall burn as you have done and never...
Will I see your sweet face again
