Dang Me Lyrics - Jerry Jeff Walker

Roger Miller 

Well here I sit-a high, just gettin' ideas 

Ain't nothing but a fool would live like this 

Out all night, and runnin' wild 

Woman sittin' home, she got a month old child 

Chorus: 

Dang me, dang me 

They oughta take a rope and hang me 

High from the highest tree 

Woman won't you weep for me 

Sittin' around drinkin' with the rest of the guys 

Six rounds we bought, and I bought five 

Spent the groceries and half the rent 

I lack fourteen dollars havin' twenty seven cents 

Chorus 

They say roses are red and violets are purple 

Sugar's sweet and so's maple syrup 

And I'm the seventh out of seven sons 

My pappy was a pistol; I'm a son of a gun. 

Chorus
