When I hear the rain a comin' down it makes me sad and blue Was on a rainy night like this that Flo said we were through I told her how I loved her hand, I begged her not go But another man changed her mind, so I said goodbye to Flo Alone within' my cell tonight, my heart is filled with fear The only sound within' the room is the falling of each tear I think about the thing I've done, I know it wasn't right They'll bury Flo tomorrow, but they're hanging me tonight They're hanging me tonight! ♪ That night he came and took my Flo and headed in to town I knew I've had to find this man and try gun him down As I walked by a dim cafe and I looked through the door I saw my Flo with her new love and I couldn't stand no more I couldn't stand no more I drew my pistol from my hip and with a trembling hand I took the life of pretty Flo and that good for nothin' man That good for nothin' man! I think about the thing I've done I know it wasn't right They'll bury Flo tomorrow, but they're hanging me tonight They're hanging me tonight They're hanging me tonight
