Gallows Pole

歌詞

Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while I think I see my friends coming, Riding a many mile Friends, did you get some silver? Did you get a little gold? What did you bring me, my dear friends, To keep me from the gallows pole? What did you bring me to keep me from the gallows pole? I couldn't get no silver, I couldn't get no gold You know that we're too damn poor To keep you from the gallows pole. Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while I think I see my brother coming, Riding many a mile Brother, did you get me some silver? Did you get a little gold? What did you bring me, my brother, To keep me from the gallows pole? Brother, I brought you some silver, yeah, I brought a little gold I brought a little of everything To keep you from the gallows pole Yes, I brought you to keep you from the gallows pole. Hangman, hangman, turn your head awhile I think I see my sister coming, Riding a many mile, mile, mile, mile Sister, I implore you, Take him by the hand Take him to some shady bower Save me from the wrath of this man Please take him, save me from the wrath of this man, man. Hangman, hangman, upon your face a smile Tell me that I'm free to ride And ride for many mile, mile, mile.
