Oh mama, I'm in fear for my life from the long arm of the law
Lawman has put an end to my runnin'
And I'm so far from my home
Oh, Mama, I can hear you a cryin'
You're so scared and all alone
Hangman is comin' down from the gallows
And I don't have very long
The jig is up, the news is out, they finally found me
A renegade who had it made, retrieved for a bounty
Nevermore to go astray, this will be the end today
I'm a wanted man
Oh, Mama, I've been here on the lam
And had a high price on my head
Lawman said get dead or alive
I was for sure he'd shoot me dead.
Dear Mama, I can hear you a cryin'
You're so scared and all alone
Hangman is comin' dpwn from the galllows
And I don't have very long
The jig is up, the news is out, they finally found me
A renegade who had it made, retrieved for a bounty
Nevermore to go astray
This will be the end today
I'm a wanted man
I'm a wanted man
And I don't wanna go, No, No
