I'm goin' to kill myself oh, Lordy me

Going to kill myself, you wait and see

Gonna whittle myself a little wooden gun

To blow my brains out just for fun

And kill myself oh, Lordy me

My good gal, she's gone and done me wrong

Yes, she walked right away with another man

Well, she walked right away with another man

And I'll get even with her if I can

I'm gonna kill myself oh, Lordy me

I'm goin' to hang myself, oh, Lordy me

I'm goin' to hang myself, you wait and see

Goin' get me a spoon and sewing thread

Hang myself 'til I am dead

And kill myself, oh, Lordy me

I'm going to drown myself, oh Lordy me

Going to drown myself, you wait and see

Gonna to jump in the rivеr 'bout two inches deep

A-Lay right down and go to sleep

And drown myself, oh, Lordy me

I'm going to lay with my hеad on the railroad track (on that cold steel)

Going to lay with my head on the railroad track

Going to lay with my head on the railroad track

And a train come along I'm gonna jerk it back

And kill myself, oh Lordy me

I know my gal will weep I know she'll moan

Yeah, I know my gal will weep I know she'll moan

Well I know she'll weep and I know she'll moan

Hopefully the rest of these boys alone

I'm gonna kill myself, oh Lordy me
