EWell that judge he found me guilty of wrong doing
And he Asentenced me to hang in mid-EJuly
He Elooked down at me and said your life?s a ruin C#7
FIf I were you I'd break right down and B7cry
But noEbody seems to care that I ain't guilty
I Anever did the things they said I've Edone
But I Eguess they're gonna have to hang someC#7body
And it's Flookin like I'm B7gonna be the Eone
So Asend my body home on a Efreight train
And don't Aworry none that I don't go first Eclass
ASend my body home on a Efreight train C#7
So Feveryone can see me when I B7pass
And don't Aworry none about no fancy Efuneral
Cause Ait don?t matter how they lay me Edown
Just Asee they bury me out by Emama's apple C#7tree
And Fsend my body B7back to my home Etown
Well, my mama was one damn hard workin woman
And she tried to raise us kids without a paw
The last thing that she said she was on her dying bed
Was son don't get in trouble with the law
Whenever my time comes to meet my maker
I'm going to try to do my very best
I'm going try to stand and take it like a man
When they ask if I have one request
Well I?ll just say
Just see they bury me out by mama's apple tree
And send my body back to my home town
