Oh Mama, I'm in fear for my life from the long arm of the law Law man has put an end to my running and I'm so far from my home Oh Mama I can hear you a-cryin', you're so scared and all alone Hangman is comin' down from the gallows and I don't have very long The jig is up, the news is out They finally found me The renegade who had it made Retrieved for a bounty Never more to go astray This'll be the end today Of the wanted man Oh Mama, I've been years on the lam and had a high price on my head Lawman said 'Get him dead or alive' and it's for sure he'll see me dead Dear Mama I can hear you cryin', you're so scared and all alone Hangman is comin' down from the gallows and I don't have very long Oh Mama, I'm in fear for my life from the long arm of the law Hangman is comin' down from the gallows and I don't have very long The jig is up, the news is out They finally found me The renegade who had it made Retrieved for a bounty Never more to go astray The judge will have revenge today I don't have very long! (Styx)
