Please Don't Let That Woman Get Me

Throw me in a den full of great big lions
Or take me to the hangin' tree
But please don't let that woman get me

Tie me up on the railroad track
Or drown me in the deepest sea
But please don't let that woman get me

Oh, the woman I believed in turned up to be deceivin'
She almost beaten my poor old heart to death
Yes, she left my heart forsaken and every rule she's breakin'
Every word she said was spoke with a lyin' breath

So throw me in a den full of great big lions
If I hear that woman a callin' and I feel my heart a fallin'
I think I'll make me a bomb and light the fuse
If I ever see her a comin' I'm a gonna take off a runnin'
