LOVE A WOMAN 

LIKE A MIDNIGHT SONG, 

LOVED A WOMAN, 

‘TIL I CAUGHT HER WRONG. 

KILLED THE WOMAN 

AND KILLED THE SONG. 

LORD, LORD, AIN’T IT A SHAME! 

 

KILLED A MAN FOR MONEY, 

FOR MONEY AND A WOMAN. 

KILLED A MAN FOR MONEY, 

FOR MONEY AND A WOMAN. 

NEVER GOT THE MONEY, 

AND I NEVER GOT THE WOMAN. 

LORD, THIS A HARD WAY TO GO! 

SO BRING ON YOUR HANGMAN, 

TAKE ME AWAY.   CAUSE I BE BLUE 

‘TIL THE JUDGEMENT DAY. 

LORD, THIS HILL IS HARD TO CLIMB. 

MOTHER DEAR,    

THIS TEAR……IS FOR YOU.
