Come on and take heed Just remember the death of poor Ella Speed Come on and take heed Just remember the death of poor Ella Speed Ella Speed was down town just a havin' her lovin' fun Let me tell you what Bill Morton done The deed that Bill Morton done First degree murder with a Colt forty-one Bill Morton he was long and slen-der Better known by being a bar tender Bill Morton was arrested and locked up in jail The judge said Bill Morton I'll never fail The deed Bill Morton that you done You're sentenced, you know you ought-ta be hung When the women all heard that Ella Speed was dead All goes back home and they re-ragged in red
