John Hardy - The Carter Family[00:00:00]

John Hardy he 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 oughta seen John Hardy getting away[00:00:29]

John Hardy he got to the Keystone Bridge[00:00:36]

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

And up steps a man and takes him by his arm[00:00:44]

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

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

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

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

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

John Hardy he had a pretty little girl[00:01:15]

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

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

Saying "Poppy I've been true to you "[00:01:28]

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

The dress she wore was red[00:01:39]

She followed John Hardy to his hanging ground[00:01:43]

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[00:02:03]

And now I'm on my hanging ground[00:02:07]

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

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

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

"I'll meet you in that sweet by-and-by"[00:02:27]
