[00:00:59] Mr garfield been shot down shot down shot down

[00:01:04] Mr garfield been shot down low

[00:01:09] Me and my brother was down close to the depot

[00:01:11] When I heard the report of a pistol

[00:01:14] My brother run out and come back in all excited

[00:01:16] And I said what was it

[00:01:17] And he said it was the report of a pistol

[00:01:20] And then he said

[00:01:23] Mr garfield been shot down

[00:01:26] Shot down shot down

[00:01:28] Mr garfield been shot down low

[00:01:33] Lord I knew the president was

[00:01:34] Supposed to be at the depot that day

[00:01:36] And we just would't believe that he's shot

[00:01:39] But we'd run over there and

[00:01:40] There was so many folks around

[00:01:42] That we couldn't see him but

[00:01:43] Some lady was standin' there crying

[00:01:45] And I said ma'am what was it

[00:01:47] That happened ma'am

[00:01:48] And she said

[00:01:49] Mr garfield been shot down

[00:01:52] Shot down shot down

[00:01:54] Mr garfield been shot down low

[00:02:00] Well everybody drifted off toward home finally

[00:02:03] And they looked like they

[00:02:04] Felt about as bad as I did

[00:02:06] But in a few weeks I heard that

[00:02:08] The president was still alive

[00:02:10] And I told my brother I said

[00:02:12] Let's get on that train

[00:02:13] And go to where he's laid up hurt

[00:02:16] Well when we got to his big house

[00:02:17] Up there I asked the fellow

[00:02:18] I said who was it that did it

[00:02:21] Who was it that shoot the president

[00:02:23] And he said

[00:02:24] It was charlie guiteau that shoot Mr garfield

[00:02:26] And I said

[00:02:35] Down a good man low

[00:02:40] I heard some fellow there that

[00:02:41] Had been in the house to see the president

[00:02:43] And I sidled up him to listen

[00:02:45] To what he was telling and he said

[00:02:47] Mrs Lucretia Garfield was

[00:02:50] Always at his side

[00:02:52] In the heat of the day

[00:02:53] Fanning him when he was hot

[00:02:55] He said that just that day

[00:02:56] The president said to Mrs Lucretia

[00:02:58] He said crete honey

[00:03:00] He called her crete

[00:03:01] Said if somethin' worse happens

[00:03:03] To me after awhile you get yourself a good man

[00:03:08] And Mrs Lucretia said James

[00:03:11] She called him James

[00:03:12] She said I won't hear to that now

[00:03:14] She said I love you too much

[00:03:16] But he said

[00:03:18] You'll make some good man

[00:03:20] A good wife good wife

[00:03:22] You'll make some man

[00:03:23] A good good wife

[00:03:28] Harness all your life good girl

[00:03:31] Don't pull in single

[00:03:32] Harness all your life

[00:03:35] That's what he said

[00:03:35] Don't pull in single harness all your life

[00:03:37] Well a few days later I come back

[00:03:40] To where the president was resting

[00:03:43] And it seems everybody was crying

[00:03:45] The flag was hanging halfway up

[00:03:47] To the flagpole in front of the house

[00:03:50] Everybody looked so sad and I asked a soldier boy there

[00:03:53] I said is is Mr is Mr garfield

[00:03:57] And he said yes he's gone

[00:04:01] Going to lay him in that cold lonesome ground down low

[00:04:05] Going to lay him in that cold lonesome ground

[00:04:10] Well they laid the president by that long cold branch
