[Verse 1]
G# D#
Was on one Christmas evening
D# G# G#7
The snow lay on the ground
C# G#
Near his home in North Carolina
D#7 G#
In this murder he was found
[Verse 2]
G# D#
His name was Charlie Lawson
D# G# G#7
And he had a loving wife
C# G#
So, we'll never know what caused him
D#7 G#
To take his family's life
[Verse 3]
G# D#
They say he killed his wife at first
D# G# G#7
And the little ones did cry
C# G#
"Please, Papa, won't you spare our lives?
D#7 G#
For it is so hard to die!"
[Verse 4]
G# D#
But, the raging man could not be stopped
D# G# G#7
He would not heed their call
C# G#
Just kept on firing fatal shots
D#7 G#
Until he killed them all
[Instrumental]

D#7 G#
[Verse 5]
G# D#
And when this sad, sad news was heard
D# G# G#7
It was an awful surprise
C# G#
He had killed six children and his wife
D#7 G#
And then he closed their eyes
[Verse 6]
G# D#
And now, farewell, kind friends and home
D# G# G#7
I'll see you all no more
C# G#
Into my breast I'll fire one shot
D#7 G#
And then my troubles will be o'er
[Verse 7]
G# D#
They did not carry him to jail
D# G# G#7
No lawyers did he pay
C# G#
But they'll have his trial in a-nother world
D#7 G#
On the final Judgement Day
