[Verse 1] In the timbers of Fennario The wolves are running 'round The winter was so hard and cold Froze ten feet 'neath the ground [Chorus] Don't murder me I beg of you, don't murder me Please don't murder me [Verse 2] I sat down to my supper It was a bottle of red whiskey I said my prayers and went to bed That's the last they saw of me [Chorus] Don't murder me I beg of you, don't murder me Please don't murder me [Verse 3] When I awoke, the dire wolf Six hundred pounds of sin Was grinning at my window All I said was, "Come on in" [Chorus] Don't murder me I beg of you, don't murder me Please don't murder me [Verse 4] The wolf came in, I got my cards We sat down for a game I cut my deck to the queen of spades But the cards were all the same [Chorus] Don't murder me I beg of you, don't murder me Please don't murder me Don't murder me [Verse 5] In the backwash of Fennario The black and bloody mire The dire wolf collects his due While the boys sing round the fire [Chorus] Don't murder me I beg of you, don't murder me Please don't murder me [Chorus] Don't murder me I beg of you, don't murder me Please don't murder me [Outro] No, no, no Don't murder me I beg of you, don't murder me Please don't murder me Please don't murder me
