Verse:

(spoken)
Oh Mama, I'm in fear for my life 
from the long arm of the law
Law man has put an end to my running 
and I'm so far from my home
Oh Mama, I can hear you crying 
you're so scared and all alone
Hangman is coming down from the gallows 
and I don't have very long


Chorus:

C   D   F  GThe jig is up, 

C   D    F  Gthe news is out

C    D F G         FThey finally found me

GThis'll be the end today
