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 d**h 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' If I'll slow down it'll be just to cool my shoes Oh throw me in a den full of great big lions... Oh yeah I said please don't let that woman get me
