As recorded by Bobby Bare (From the 1973 Album BOBBY BARE SINGS LULLABYS, LEGENDS AND LIES) [Intro] D [Verse]
D
This mornin' I jumped on my horse and went out for a ride

D
Some wild outlaws chased me and they shot me in the side

D
So I crawled into a wild cat's cave to find a place to hide

D
But some pirates found me a sleepin' there and soon they had me tied

D
Till a lady zombie cut me loose and begged to be my bride

D
So I said I'd come back Wednesday but I must admit I lied

D
Cause I run away into the swamp but I forgot my guide

D
And I stepped into some quicksand and no matter how I tried

D
I couldn't get out until I met a crocodile named Clyde

D
Who took me to some cannibals who planned to have me fried

D
They built a fire under me and I swear I almost cried

D
Till an eagle come and swooped me up and through the air we flied

D
But he dropped me in a boilin' lake a thousand miles wide
N.C. And you know what happened then I died
