John Hardy - Leadbelly[00:00:00]
John Hardy he was a desperate little man[00:00:22]
He carried two guns every day[00:00:27]
He shot a man on the west v*rginia line[00:00:30]
Might have seen John Hardy getting away poor boy[00:00:35]
Might have seen John Hardy getting away[00:00:39]
John Hardy went up upon that freestone bridge[00:01:03]
There he thought he would be free[00:01:07]
Up stepped a deputy and he caught him by the arm[00:01:11]
Saying Johnny come and go with me poor boy[00:01:15]
Johnny come and go with me[00:01:19]
John Hardy had a mother and a father too[00:01:43]
He sent for them to come and go his bail[00:01:47]
There was not no bail out for a murdering man[00:01:50]
They shaved John Hardy back in jail poor boy[00:01:55]
And they shaved John Hardy back in jail[00:01:59]
John Hardy had a purdy little wife[00:02:22]
That mrs oh she wore what blew[00:02:26]
She came to the jailhouse with a loud shout[00:02:29]
She saying Johnny ive been true to you poor boy[00:02:33]
Johnny ive been true to you[00:02:37]
John Hardy was standing in his cell[00:02:59]
With tears a rolling down his eye[00:03:03]
Ive been the death of a many poor boy[00:03:07]
And now i am ready to die lord lord[00:03:11]
Now i am ready to die[00:03:15]
I've been to the east i've been to the west[00:03:36]
I've been this whole wide world round[00:03:40]
I've been to the east river and i've been baptised[00:03:44]
Now take me to my hanging ground lord now[00:03:48]
Take me to my hanging ground[00:03:52]
