charles guiteau - kelly harrell lyrics

Loading...

come all you tender christians
wherever you may be
and likewise pay attention
from these few lines from me
i was down at the depot
to make my getaway
and providence being against me
it proved to be too late

i tried to play off insane
but found it would not do
the people all against me
it proved to make no show
judge c-x he p-ssed the sentence
the clerk he wrote it down
on the thirtieth day of june
to die i was condemned

my name is charles guiteau
my name i’ll never deny
to leave my aged parents
to sorrow and to die
but little did i think
while in my youthful bloom
i’d be carried to the scaffold
to meet my fatal doom

my sister came in prison
to bid her last farewell
she threw her arms around me
she wept most bitterly
she said, “my loving brother
today you must die
for the murder of james a. garfield
upon the scaffold high”

my name is charles guiteau
my name i’ll never deny
to leave my aged parents
to sorrow and to die
but little did i think
while in my youthful bloom
i’d be carried to the scaffold
to meet my fatal doom

and now i mount the scaffold
to bid you all adieu
the hangman now is waiting
it’s a quarter after two
the black cap is over my face
no longer can i see
but when i’m dead and buried
dear lord, remember me

my name is charles guiteau
my name i’ll never deny
to leave my aged parents
to sorrow and to die
but little did i think
while in my youthful bloom
i’d be carried to the scaffold
to meet my fatal doom
