Bad Company

Come all you young companions,
And listen unto me
I'll tell you and sad story
Of some bad company.
I was born in Pennsylvania,
Among the beautiful hills,
The memory of my childhood
Is warm within me still.

I had a kind old mother,
Who oft would plead with me
The last word that she gave me
Was pray to God in need.
I had two loving sisters
As fair as fair could be,
Oft beside me kneeling
They too would plead with me.

I did not like my fireside,
I did not like my home.
I had in view farm rambling,
And far away did roam.
I bid adieu to loved ones,
To my home I said farewell,
And I landed in Chicago,
In the very depths of hell.

It was there I took to drinking,
I sinned both night and day,
But still within my bosom,
A feeble voice would say,
"Oh, fare you well my loved one,
May God protect my boy,
May God forever bless him,
Throughout his manhood joy."

I courted a fair young maiden,
Her name I will not tell,
fir I would never disgrace her,
Since I am doomed to hell.
It was on one beautiful evening,
The stars were shining bright,
And with a fatal dagger
I bid her spirit flight.

So justice overtook me,
You all can plainly see.
My soul is doomed forever,
Throughout eternity.
It's now I'm on the scaffold;
My moments are not long.
You may forget the singer,
But don't forget the song.
