Stagolee - Mississippi John Hurt[00:00:00]
Stagolee was a bad man[00:00:02]
They go down in a coal mine one night[00:00:12]
Robbed a coal mine[00:00:18]
They's gambling down there[00:00:21]
And they placed themselves[00:00:27]
Just like they wanted to be[00:00:28]
So they wouldn't hit each[00:00:32]
Other when they was shooting[00:00:34]
Money lying all over the floor[00:00:37]
There was one bad guy down[00:00:42]
There he thought he was[00:00:43]
That was Billy De Lyon[00:00:45]
So he had a big 45 laying down by the side of him[00:00:49]
When they got placed why[00:00:54]
Stagolee spoke to him[00:01:01]
He says "Boys[00:01:02]
Look at the money lying down here on the floor"[00:01:04]
Says "What would we do if old[00:01:08]
Stagolee and them was to walk in here "[00:01:09]
This guy picked up his 45 he says[00:01:11]
"I wouldn't make a bit of difference"[00:01:15]
Says "Stag's gun won't shoot a bit[00:01:16]
Harder than this one"[00:01:19]
About that time Stag knocked his hat off[00:01:21]
And his partner taking care of the rest[00:01:28]
When he knocked his hat off he[00:01:32]
He kind of remembered that was Stagolee[00:01:34]
And he commenced begging like this[00:01:41]
Policin' officer how can it be[00:01:57]
You can rest everybody but cruel Stagolee[00:02:01]
That bad man oh cruel Stagolee[00:02:06]
He said "Stagolee Stagolee[00:02:23]
Please don't take my life"[00:02:26]
Says "I got two little babies[00:02:28]
And a darlin' lovin' wife"[00:02:31]
He's a bad man oh cruel Stagolee[00:02:33]
Here's the answer Stagolee gave him[00:02:50]
What I care about your two little babies[00:02:52]
Darlin' lovin' wife[00:02:54]
Says "You done stole my Stetson hat[00:02:56]
I'm bound to take your life"[00:02:59]
It's a magic hat oh cruel Stagolee[00:03:01]
Boom boom boom boom with a forty-four[00:03:19]
When I spied poor Billy De Lyon[00:03:23]
He is lyin' down on the floor[00:03:25]
That bad man oh cruel Stagolee[00:03:28]
Gentleman of the jury what you think that[00:03:45]
Says "Stagolee killed Billy de Lyon[00:03:49]
About a five-dollar Stetson hat"[00:03:51]
He's a bad man oh cruel Stagolee[00:03:54]
Standing on the gallows Stagolee did curse[00:04:11]
The Judge said "Let's kill him[00:04:15]
For he killed some of us"[00:04:18]
He's a bad man oh cruel Stagolee[00:04:20]
Standing on the gallows[00:04:37]
His head was way up high[00:04:39]
At twelve o'clock they killed him[00:04:41]
They's all glad to see him die[00:04:44]
He's a bad man oh cruel Stagolee[00:04:46]
Policin' officer how can it be[00:05:03]
You can rest everybody but cruel Stagolee[00:05:07]
That bad man oh cruel Stagolee[00:05:12]
