We sat down for a game
Was grinning at my window
Don't murder me, please, don't murder me
In the backwash of Fennario
That's the last they saw of me
The black and bloody mire
Don't murder me, please, don't murder me
I said my prayers and went to bed
The dire wolf collects his due
Don't murder me, please, don't murder me
Don't murder me, I beg of you
Froze ten feet 'neath the ground
I cut my deck to the queen of spades
But the cards were all the same
But don't murder me, I beg of you
While the boys sing 'round the fire
Don't murder me, please, don't murder me
Don't murder me, I beg of you
The wolf came in, I got my cards
Don't murder me, please, don't murder me
Don't murder me, please, don't murder me
When I awoke, the dire wolf
Don't murder me
No, no, no don't murder me, I beg of you
I sat down to my supper
All I said was, "Come on in"
It was a bottle of red whisky
The winter was so hard and cold
Don't murder me, please, don't murder me
Don't murder me, I beg of you
Don't murder me, I beg of you
Don't murder me, I beg of you
Six hundred pounds of sin
