Hang down your head, Mark Foley
--With apologies to folk musicians in general, sung to the tune of 'Hang down your head, Tom Dooley'--

Hang down your head, Mark Foley
Hang down your head and cry
Hang down your head, Mark Foley
Poor boy, you’re bound to fry

I met him in the Congress, he was just a page
Sent him nasty emails, 'cause I like 'em under age

Hang down your head, Mark Foley
Hang down your head and cry (ah-uh-eye)
Hang down your head, Mark Foley
Poor boy, you’re bound to fry

Come next Novemeber,
don't know where I’ll be
I'd still be in congress,
If it weren't for ABC (well now, boy)

Hang down (your head) your head (Foley) and cry
Hang down your head and cry (ah poor boy, ah well-ah)
Hang down (your head) your head (Foley) and cry
Poor boy, you’re bound to fry
--repeat--

This time tomorrow,
reckon where I’ll be
trolling in some chatroom
pretending I'm seventeen

Hang down your head, Mark Foley
Hang down your head and cry (poor boy ah well uh)
Hang down your head, Mark Foley
Poor boy, you’re bound to fry
Poor boy, you’re bound to fry
Poor boy, you’re bound to fry
Poor boy, you’re bound to .......fry

1. Oh come one! Doesn't anyone remember
Tom Dooley?

the Kingston trio? Peter, Paul and Mary?

Hear the song : http://www.niehs.nih.gov/kids/lyrics/tomdooley.htm

And this is the story - Tom Dooley was an accomplice to the murder of a beautiful woman, but not the actual murderer. Yet Dooley was the one that was hung for the crime. I'm not implying that Foley wasn't guilty, but he is taking the fall for the GOP in general, as well he should.

Anyway, very popular folk song. Was even performed by the Grateful Dead.

Give it up!
