[Verse 1]
Early one morning with time to kill
I borrowed Jed's rifle and sat on the hill
I saw a lone rider crossin’ the plain
I drew a bead on him to practice my aim
Well my brother's rifle went off in my hand
A shot rang out across the land
The horse he kept runnin’ but the rider was dead
[Chorus 1]
I hung my head, I hung my head
I hung my head, I hung my head, alright!
[Verse 2]
Well I set off runnin’ to wake from the dream
My brother's rifle went into the sheen
I kept on running into the south lands
And that's where they found me, my head in my hands
The sheriff he asked me, why had I run?
And then it came to me just what I had done
And all for no reason, just one piece of lead
[Chorus 2]
I hung my head, I hung my head
I hung my head, I hung my head
I hung my head, I hung my head
I hung my head, I hung my head
Early one morning with time to kill
I borrowed Jed's rifle and sat on the hill
I saw a lone rider crossin’ the plain
I drew a bead on him to practice my aim
Well my brother's rifle went off in my hand
A shot rang out across the land
The horse he kept runnin’ but the rider was dead
[Chorus 1]
I hung my head, I hung my head
I hung my head, I hung my head, alright!
[Verse 2]
Well I set off runnin’ to wake from the dream
My brother's rifle went into the sheen
I kept on running into the south lands
And that's where they found me, my head in my hands
The sheriff he asked me, why had I run?
And then it came to me just what I had done
And all for no reason, just one piece of lead
[Chorus 2]
I hung my head, I hung my head
I hung my head, I hung my head
I hung my head, I hung my head
I hung my head, I hung my head
