Oh Mama, I'm in fear for my life
From the long arm of the law
Lawman has put an end to my runnin'
And I'm so far from my home
Oh Mama, I can hear you were cryin'
You're so scared and all alone
Hangman is coming down from the gallows
And I don't have very long
The jig is up, the news is out, they've finally found me
The renegade who had it made, retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray, this will be the end today
Of the wanted man
Oh Mama, I've been years on the lamb
And had a high price on my head
Lawman said, "Get him dead or alive"
Now it's for sure he'll see me dead
Dear Mama, I can hear you were cryin'
You're so scared and all alone
Hangman is coming down from the gallows
And I don't have very long
The jig is up, the news is out, they've finally found me
The renegade who had it made, retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray, the judge'll have revenge today
On the wanted man
Oh Mama, I'm in fear for my life
From the long arm of the law
Hangman is coming down from the gallows
And I don't have very long
The jig is up, the news is out, they've finally found me
The renegade, he had it made, retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray, this will be the end today
Of the wanted man
The wanted man
And I don't wanna go
[Incomprehensible]
