 <br />
 Well, early one evenin`, I was roamin` around<br />
 I was feelin` kinda mean, I shot the deputy down<br />
 Strolled along home and I went to bed<br />
 Well, I laid my pistol up under my head<br />
 <br />
 He strolled along home (I took my time)<br />
 And he went to bed (thought I`d sleep some)<br />
 And he laid his pistol (Big 22)<br />
 Up under his head (I keep it handy)<br />
 <br />
 Well, early in the morning about the break of day<br />
 I figured it was time to make a getaway<br />
 Steppin` right along but I was steppin` too slow<br />
 Got surrounded by a sheriff down in Mexico<br />
 <br />
 He was steppin` right along (I were hot-footin` it)<br />
 But he was steppin` too slow (it was a sultry day)<br />
 Got surrounded by a sheriff (boxed in)<br />
 In Mexico (I didn`t even have a chance to see the country)<br />
 <br />
 When I was arrested I didn`t have a dime<br />
 The sheriff says `Son, you`re ridin` free this time`<br />
 `` Where you`re goin` you won`t need a cent`<br />
 ` `cause the great state of Texas gonna pay your rent`<br />
 <br />
 `cause where you`re goin` (I think he means jail)<br />
 you won`t need a cent (well, he knows I`m broke)<br />
 `cause the great state of Texas (Yippee!)<br />
 gonna pay your rent (I`m mighty grateful, fellas)<br />
 <br />
 Well, I didn`t have a key and I didn`t have a file<br />
 Naturally I stayed around until my trial<br />
 Judge was an old man, ninety-three<br />
 And I didn`t like the way the jury looked at me<br />
 <br />
 Well, the judge was an old man (TOO old!)<br />
 Ninety-three (Entirely too old)<br />
 (I didn`t like the way the jury looked at me)<br />
 SPOKEN: (I think they were suspicious)<br />
 <br />
 BACKUPS: The judge and the jury, they did agree<br />
 They all said `Murder in the first degree`<br />
 The judge set sayin`<br />
 <br />
 SPOKEN in an older voice: `I don`t know whether to hang `im or not but this here<br />
 killing of deputy sheriffs has just naturally got to stop.` (You got a point there,<br />
 judge!)<br />
 <br />
 It was a most unsatisfactory trial<br />
 They gave me ninety-nine years on a hard rock pile<br />
 Ninety and nine on the hard rock ground<br />
 All I ever did was shoot the deputy down<br />
 <br />
 Ninety and nine (It COULD`VE been life)<br />
 On the hard rock pile (they mighta hung me)<br />
 And all he ever did<br />
 Was shoot a deputy do-o-o-o-own<br />
 <br />
 (This whole thing has sure been a lesson to me!)<br />
 <br />
 (Bang! You`re dead!)<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/bad_man_blunder_lyrics-the_kingston_trio.html" target='_blank'>BAD MAN BLUNDER lyrics THE KINGSTON TRIO</a></pre>

TRANSCRIBER`S NOTE: Slightly different format used here. Most lyrics are sung

Well, early one evenin`, I was roamin` around
I was feelin` kinda mean, I shot the deputy down
Strolled along home and I went to bed
Well, I laid my pistol up under my head

He strolled along home (I took my time)
And he went to bed (thought I`d sleep some)
And he laid his pistol (Big 22)
Up under his head (I keep it handy)

Steppin` right along but I was steppin` too slow
Got surrounded by a sheriff down in Mexico

He was steppin` right along (I were hot-footin` it)
But he was steppin` too slow (it was a sultry day)
Got surrounded by a sheriff (boxed in)
In Mexico (I didn`t even have a chance to see the country)
