lyrics

It was just about midnight
On the fourth day of july
When sweet little lucty
Blew her daddy sky high
The shots rang out
Like a warrior’s cry
And then only silence
As the old man died

Now big girls don’t cry
So don’t tell your ma
How I love my beautiful girl
So kiss him goodnight
And wash until you’re raw
And one day a new flag will unfurl

The lawmen went down
As the dim darkness grew
And word went around
About the truth everybody knew
But lucy and her ma
They knew it was all right
And they buried her pa
That very same night

Well Lucy was bold
And so justice was served
And her dear old daddy
Well he got what he deserved
But it aint always so
For this tale I tell
It happens every day
And perhaps you know it well
