I went to James A. Garfield

He took me to be his friend.

I shot a bullet in him

Which caused his fatal end.

I thought I'd make my escape

But providence being against me

I found I was too late.

My name is Charles Giteau

My name I'll never deny

Though I leave my aged parents

In sorrow for to die

--But little did they think I

While in my youthful bloom

Would be taken to the scaffold

To meet my fatal doom.

They proved it was untrue.
