There\'s a tale they tell down in old Wolf County Of a murderous husband and his family of three One day a neighbor from over the hill He found them dead in the cabin it was so deathly still
The killer he left a note and I know how it read I hope you don\'t find me I\'d rather be dead Than to live in your jailhouse for the rest of my days Until a jury it hangs me for my wicked ways
Chorus: Sometimes at night I wake to the sound Of the men in the distance and the baying of hounds Once on a full moon in the spring of the year I heard breaking branches and footsteps so near
Well the posse it searched it was five days or more He hid in a cave by the steep river shore Til he gave himself up he started walking downtown Before he got to the courthouse a man shot him down
He said I\'m not sorry for what I have done But I cannot live like a man on the run I\'m glad that you killed me you can dig me my grave It can\'t be much worse than that dark lonely cave
