As I road down by Tom Sherman's bar-room.
Tom Sherman's bar-room so early on day,
There I espied a handsome young ranger
All wrap[p]ed in white linen,as cold as the clay.
"I see by your outfit that you're a ranger,"
The words he did said as I went riding by,
"Come,sit down beside me,and hear my sad story,
etc. etc.
