Up on the Blue Ridge Mountains, there I'll take my stand
Up on the Blue Ridge Mountains, there I'll take my stand
A rifle on my shoulder, six shooter in my hand
Oh Lord, I been all around this world

Lulu, my Lulu come and open the door
Lulu, my Lulu come and open the door
Before I have to walk in with my old forty-four
Oh Lord, I been all around this world

Mama and Papa, little sister makes three
Mama and Papa, little sister makes three
They're comin' in the mornin' that's the last you'll see of me
Oh Lord, I been all around this world

Hang me, oh, hang me, so I'll be dead and gone
Hang me, oh, hang me, so I'll be dead and gone
I wouldn't mind your hangin', boys but you wait in jail so long
Oh Lord, I been all around this world

Up on the Blue Ridge Mountains, there I'll take my stand
Up on the Blue Ridge Mountains, there I'll take my stand
A rifle on my shoulder, six shooter in my hand
Oh Lord, I been all around this world
