作曲 : Traditional Song
Hang your head Tom Dula
Hang your head and cry
Killed poor Laura Foster
And you know you're bound to die
You took her on the mountain
As God almighty knows
You took her on the mountain
And there you hid her clothes
Hang your head Tom Dula
Hang your head and cry
Killed poor Laura Foster
And you know you're bound to die
You took her by the roadside
Where you begged to be excused
You took her by the roadside
Where there you hid her shoes
Hang your head Tom Dula
Hang your head and cry
Killed poor Laura Foster
And you know you're bound to die
You took her on the hillside
You asked her to be your wife
You took her on the hillside
Stabbed her with your knife
Hang your head Tom Dula
Hang your head and cry
Killed poor Laura Foster
And you know you're bound to die
You dug her grave four feet long
Dug it three feet deep
Rolled the cold clay over her
And tromped it with your feet
Hang your head Tom Dula
Hang your head and cry
Killed poor Laura Foster
And you know you're bound to die
This world and one more than
Now reckon where I'd be
If it hadn't been for Grayson
I'd a been in Tennessee
Hang your head Tom Dula
Hang your head and cry
Killed poor Laura Foster
And you know you're bound to die
I'd listen to my mama's words
I'll be at home today but
Be so young and regular
Said no I could not stay
Hang your head Tom Dula
Hang your head and cry
Killed poor Laura Foster
And you know you're bound to die
Take down my old violin
And play it all you please
For at this time tomorrow
It’ll be no use to me
Hang your head Tom Dula
Hang your head and cry
Killed poor Laura Foster
And you know you're bound to die
In this day or one more
Where do you reckon I'll be
Down in some lonesome valley
Hang from a white oak tree
Hang your head Tom Dula
Hang your head and cry
Killed poor Laura Foster
And you know you're bound to die
Hang your head Tom Dula
Hang your head and cry
Killed poor Laura Foster
And you know you're bound to die
Hang your head Tom Dula
Hang your head and cry
Killed poor Laura Foster
And you know you're bound to die
