[00:00:00] Gather 'round people let me tell you 'bout Dupree

[00:00:08] Gather 'round people let me tell you 'bout Dupree

[00:00:24] Dupree told Betty you can have most anything

[00:00:33] Just lay down pretty Betty see what tomorrow brings

[00:00:43] Said lay down pretty Betty see what tomorrow brings

[00:00:52] May bring sunshine it may bring your diamond ring

[00:01:01] Dupree went down town a '44 in his hand

[00:01:02] Dupree went down town a '44 in his hand

[00:01:04] Went for the jewelry but he shot that jewelry man

[00:01:11] Dupree said Betty here's your diamond ring

[00:01:14] Dupree said Betty here's your diamond ring

[00:01:16] Just to please you pretty Betty I've done done a wicked thing

[00:01:21] Dupree told Betty I'm bound for Tennessee

[00:01:23] Dupree told Betty I'm bound for Tennessee

[00:01:26] They caught poor Dupree and put him into the jail

[00:01:31] Caught poor Dupree put him in the jail

[00:01:40] Dupree said judge I ain't been here before

[00:01:42] Dupree said judge I ain't been here before

[00:01:50] They took him to the scaffold a black cap upon his face

[00:01:53] Took him to the scaffold a black cap upon his face

[00:01:56] Now the cold cold ground is for Dupree's resting place

[00:01:59] Betty went to the graveyard singing near oh my God to thee

[00:02:02] Betty went to the graveyard singing near oh my God to thee

[00:02:06] Oh mister hangman look what you done done to Dupree

[00:02:10] She told the hack driver to drive his wagon slow

[00:02:12] Told the hack driver drive your dead wagon slow

[00:02:16] When you bury my Dupree I ain't gonna see him no more

[00:02:19] Sail on Dupree sail on sail on Dupree sail on

[00:02:25] Don't mind you sailing but you be gone so long

[00:02:26] So long Dupree poor boy so long Dupree poor boy

[00:02:29] Don't mind you sailing you'll be gone so long sail on

[00:02:30] Dupree poor boy
