Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Hang down your head and cry-cry-cry
Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Poor boy you're bound to die
Tom Dooley went down in the valley
Walked in his rock 'n' roll inn
He met this girl they call Laro
That's when his rockin' began
Tom Dooley took her to the mountain
Asked her to be his wife
Laero refused Tom Dooley
He stabbed her with his knife
Well, the law called Tom Dooley
Asked him if he killed poor Laro
And the jury found him guilty
Said, you'll hang tomorrow
They took Tom Dooley to the gallows
Hung him to a wide oak pole
Sure there's a heaven up younder
They killed Tom Dooley rock 'n' roll
Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Hang down your head and cry-cry-cry
Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Poor boy you're bound to die
Poor boy you're bound to die
