Lyrics Johnny Rivers

Johnny Rivers

Dang Me

Well, here I sit high, gettin' ideas

Ain't nothing but a fool would live like this

Out all night and runnin' wild

Woman sittin' home with a month old child

Dang me, dang me

They oughta take a rope and hang me

High from the highest tree

Woman, would you weep for me?

Just sittin' 'round drinkin' with the rest of the guys

Six rounds bought and I bought five

Spent the half the groceries and all the rent

Like fourteen dollars having twenty seven cents

Dang me, dang me

They oughta take a rope and hang me

High from the highest tree

Woman, would you weep for me?

I say roses are red and violets are purple

Sugar is sweet and so is maple surple

I was the seventh out of seven sons

My pappy was a pistol, I'm a son of a gun

I said, dang me, dang me

They oughta take a rope and hang me

High from the highest tree

Woman, would you weep for me?

Well, here I sit high, gettin' ideas

Ain't nothing but a fool would live like this

Out all night and runnin' wild

Woman sittin' home with a month old child

Dang me, dang me

They oughta take a rope and hang me

High from the highest tree

Woman, would you weep for me?
