John Hardy Was a Desperate Little Man (Remaster) - The Carter Family[00:00:00]

Written by：Alvin Pleasant Delaney Carter[00:00:03]

John Hardy was a desperate little man[00:00:17]

He carried two guns every day[00:00:21]

He shot a man on the west virginia line[00:00:25]

And you ought to see John Hardy getting away[00:00:29]

John Hardy got to the east stone bridge[00:00:36]

He thought that he would be free[00:00:40]

And up stepped a man and took him by the arm[00:00:44]

Saying Johnny walk along with me[00:00:48]

He sent for his poppy and his mommy too[00:00:56]

To come and go his bail[00:01:00]

But money won't go on a murdering case[00:01:04]

And they locked John Hardy back in jail[00:01:08]

John Hardy had a pretty little girl[00:01:16]

The dress that she wore was blue[00:01:20]

As she came skipping through the old jail hall[00:01:24]

Saying poppy I been true to you[00:01:28]

John Hardy had another little girl[00:01:35]

The dress that she wore was red[00:01:40]

She followed John Hardy to his hanging ground[00:01:44]

Saying poppy I would rather be dead[00:01:48]

I've been to the east and I've been to the west[00:01:55]

I've been this wide world around[00:01:59]

I've been to the river and I've been baptized[00:02:04]

And I'm on my hanging ground[00:02:08]

John Hardy walked out on his scaffold high[00:02:15]

With his loving little wife by his side[00:02:19]

And the last words she heard poor John o say[00:02:23]

I'll meet you in that sweet bye and bye[00:02:27]
