John hardy had a purdy little wife, now i am ready to die John, johnny ive been true to you
that mrs oh she wore what blew
Take me to my hanging ground, and they shaved john hardy back in jail, and they shaved john hardy back in jail poor boy
He carried two guns every day, and now i am ready to die lord lord
Now take me to my hanging ground lord now, go ahead and die, take me to my hanging ground
she saying johnny ive been true to you poor boy
Go ahead and die, and they shaved john hardy back in jail John, johnny ive been true to you poor boy
John hardy went up upon that freestone bridge, they shaved john hardy back in jail poor boy
And they shaved john hardy back in jail, he carried two guns every day
i ve been this whole wide world round

There was not no bail out for a murdering man, they shaved john hardy back in jail
And they shaved john hardy back in jail, up stepped a deputy and he caught him by the arm

with tears a rolling down his eye
Now i am ready to die, johnny ive been true to you poor boy
Ive been the death of a many poor boy, might have seen john hardy getting away, up stepped a deputy and he caught him by the arm
I ve been to the east river and i ve been baptised, take me to my hanging ground
Johnny come and go with me johnny come and go with me poor boy, with tears a rolling down his eye
and now i am ready to die lord lord
Now take me to my hanging ground lord now, john hardy went up upon that freestone bridge
He shot a man on the west virginia line, he sent for them to come and go his bail Belly, she came to the jailhouse with a loud shout
He carried two guns every day, johnny come and go with me john hardy had a mother and a father too Belly, johnny ive been true to you
With tears a rolling down his eye, john hardy was standing in his cell, and now i am ready to die lord lord
and now i am ready to die lord lord
