Charles Giteau - Preston Young[00:00:00]
Written by:Traditional[00:00:09]
Come all you tender Christians[00:00:19]
Wherever you may be[00:00:21]
And likewise pay attention from few my for me[00:00:24]
I was down at the depot to make my getaway[00:00:29]
And providence turned against me[00:00:33]
It proved to be too late[00:00:36]
I tried to play off insane[00:00:38]
But found it would not do[00:00:40]
The people all against me[00:00:43]
It proved to make no show[00:00:45]
Judge cox he passed the sentence[00:00:47]
The clerk he wrote it down[00:00:50]
On the thirtieth day of June[00:00:52]
They'll die was can then[00:00:54]
My name is Charles Guiteau[00:00:57]
My name I'll never deny[00:00:59]
To leave my aged parents to sorrow and to die[00:01:02]
But little did I think[00:01:06]
While in my youthful bloom[00:01:08]
I'd be carried to the Scaffold[00:01:11]
Meet my fatal doom[00:01:13]
My sister came in prison to bid her last farewell[00:01:16]
She threw her arms around me[00:01:20]
She wept most bitterly[00:01:23]
She said my loving brother[00:01:25]
Today you must die[00:01:27]
For the murder of James a garfield[00:01:30]
Upon the Scaffold high[00:01:32]
My name is Charles Guiteau[00:01:34]
My name I'll never deny[00:01:37]
To leave my aged parents[00:01:39]
To sorrow and to die[00:01:41]
But little did I think[00:01:43]
While in my youthful bloom[00:01:46]
I'd be carried to the Scaffold[00:01:48]
To meet my fatal doom[00:01:50]
And now I'm out to Scaffold[00:02:09]
To bid you all adieu[00:02:11]
The hangman's noose is a waiting[00:02:13]
It's a quarter after two[00:02:15]
The black cap is on my face[00:02:17]
No longer can I see[00:02:20]
But when I'm dead and buried[00:02:22]
Dear Lord remember me[00:02:24]
My name is Charles Guiteau[00:02:26]
My name I'll never deny[00:02:29]
To leave my aged parents[00:02:31]
To sorrow and to die[00:02:33]
But little did I think[00:02:35]
While in my youthful bloom[00:02:38]
I'd be carried to the Scaffold[00:02:40]
To meet my fatal doom[00:02:42]
