Tekst Utworu

[Verse 1]
Hangman, hangman, slack your rope
Slack it for a while
Think I see my Father comin'
Ridin' a-many a mile
[Verse 2]
Papa, did you bring me silver?
Papa, did you bring me gold?
Did you come to see me hangin' by the gallows pole?
[Verse 3]
Well, I couldn't bring no silver
Didn't bring no gold
I've come to see you hang by the gallows pole
[Verse 4]
Hangman, hangman, slack your rope
Slack it for a while
Think I see my Mother comin'
Ridin' a-many a mile
Ridin' a-many a mile
[Verse 5]
Well, Mama, did you bring me silver?
Mama, did you bring me gold?
Did you come to see me hang by the gallows pole?
[Verse 6]
I didn't bring no silver
Didn't bring no gold
I've come to see you hangin' by the gallows pole
By the gallows pole, oh God
[Verse 7]
Hangman, hangman, slack your rope
Slack it for a while
Think I see my sweetheart comin'
Ridin' a-many a mile
Ridin' a-many a mile, oh, God
Ridin' a-many a mile
[Verse 8]
Honey, did you bring me silver?
Honey, did you bring me gold?
Did you come to see me hang by the gallows pole?
Hangin' by the gallows pole
[Verse 9]
I brought you silver
Brought you a little gold
Didn't come to see you hangin'
By the gallows pole
By the gallows pole
