[Verse 1]
Don't leave me hanging from a willow tree
Honey cut me down, cause I can't breathe
I'm up the mountain, I ain't coming down
No, you won't see me around your town

[Verse 2]
I'm high n' lonesome, I'm running dry
I've given up on gettin' by
So come home honey, don'tcha make me beg
Take out your fiddle, tune-up and play

[Chorus]
I know its hard when the sun goes down
To be alone, on shaking grounds
Go get some matches and kerosene
We'll burn it down, honey, run out and leave

[Verse 3]
I bleed out slowly, in my Sunday vest
When you come around, in that Sunday dress
Your blue eyes dancing, drawin' me in
And sideways glances, honey where you been

[Chorus]
And I know its hard when the sun goes down
To be alone, on shaking grounds
Go get some matches and kerosene
We'll burn it down, honey, run out and leave
[Verse 1]
Don't leave me hanging from a willow tree
Honey cut me down, cause I can't breathe
I'm up the mountain, ain't coming down
No, you won't see me around your town

[Chorus]
And I know its hard when the sun goes down
To be alone, on shaking grounds
Go get some matches and kerosene
We'll burn it down, honey, run out and leave

[Chorus]
And I know its hard when the sun goes down
To be alone, on shaky grounds
Go get some matches and kerosene
We'll burn it down, honey, run out and leave
