Was on one Christmas evening

The snow lay on the ground

Near his home in North Carolina

In this murder he was found
[Verse 2]

His name was Charlie Lawson

And he had a loving wife

So, we'll never know what caused him

To take his family's life
[Verse 3]

They say he killed his wife at first
F A# A#7
And the little ones did cry
D# A#
"Please, Papa, won't you spare our lives?
F7 A#
For it is so hard to die!"
[Verse 4]

But, the raging man could not be stopped

Just kept on firing fatal shots

[Verse 5]

And when this sad, sad news was heard

It was an awful surprise

He had killed six children and his wife

And then he closed their eyes

And now, farewell, kind friends and home
F A# A#7
I'll see you all no more
D# A#
Into my breast I'll fire one shot
F7 A#
And then my troubles will be o'er
[Verse 7]

They did not carry him to jail
F A# A#7
No lawyers did he pay
D# A#
But they'll have his trial in a-nother world
F7 A#
On the final Judgement Day
