Another man done gone
Another man done gone
Another man done gone
From the country farm
Another man done gone.
He had a long chain on
He had a long chain on
He had a long chain on
From the country farm
Another man done gone.
I didn't know his name
I didn't know his name
I didn't know his name
They did him just the same
Another man done gone.
He killed another man
He killed another man
He killed another man
From the country farm
Another man done gone.
Another man done gone
Another man done gone
Another man done gone
From the country farm
Another man done gone.
JB adds:
They sick the dogs on him
They sick the dogs on him
They sick the dogs on him
Torn limb from limb
Another man done gone.
