You Led Me to the Wrong

Oh, me, oh, my

You led me to the wrong

Some people born with silver and gold

Others have husbands and wives

I never had a thing in this whole wide wicked world

And now I'm losin' my life

And now I'm losin' my life

You promised me that we would be wed

On this I'd laid my money down

You were seen courtin' my best friend

You caused me to shoot him down

You caused me to shoot him down

The love of a woman is bitter, but it's sweet

Even though she turns him down

The price I have to pay may come to you someday

And you'll in the sea of sorrow drown

And you'll in the sea of sorrow drown

Well, they say I have a right to my very last few words

Before they let the scaffold down

A man has to fight for what he thinks is right

Even if it puts him in the ground

Even if it puts him in the ground

Oh, me, oh, my

You led me to the wrong
