lyrics

Lizabeth Brown, Lizabeth Brown
shot her old man right down
“He beat me up, he knocked me down
”Twas self-defense,” said Lizabeth Brown
Lizabeth Brown lit out of town
“Ain’t no man gonna lock me down”
Bullet in her side to weigh her down
Lay down and died, poor Lizabeth Brown

Devil man came unto her
with horns on head and legs of fur
Said to her, “Like what I see!”Lizabeth Brown won’t you marry me?”
“The hell I will,” said Lizabeth Brown
“No boogie-man gonna tie me down!”All you men, from hoof to crown,
“you’re all the same,” said Lizabeth Brown

The Lord He came to Lizabeth Brown
“On what you did I do frown”
“But your old man, poor Lizabeth Brown
”he weren’t no good. In peace lie down”
Lizabeth Brown unto Him said,
“No, thank you, Sir, I’ll not be dead”She got right up and walked around
a free woman, that Lizabeth Brown

Lizabeth Brown, Lizabeth Brown
shot her old man right down
“He beat me up, he knocked me down
”Twas self-defence,” said Lizabeth Brown
