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
