Lyrics

Hangman, hangman, hangman, slack your rope a while
Think I see my brother ridin' many a mile
Well, brother, did you bring me silver? Brother, did you bring me gold?
Or did you come to see me hangin' from the gallows pole?
(No, I didn't bring you any silver; no, I didn't bring any gold
I just come to see you hangin' from the gallows pole)
Hangman, hangman, hangman, slack your rope a while
Think I see my father ridin' many a mile
Well, Father, did you bring me silver? Father, did you bring me gold?
Or did you come to see me hangin' from the gallows pole?
(No, I didn't bring you any silver; no, I didn't bring any gold
I just come to see you hangin' from the gallows pole)
Hangman, hangman, hangman, slack your rope a while
Think I see my sweetheart ridin' many a mile
Sweetheart, did you bring me silver? Sweetheart, did you bring me gold?
Or did you come to see me hangin' from the gallows pole?
(Yes, I brought you some silver; yes, I brought a little gold
I didn't come to see you hangin' from the gallows pole)
(Hangin' from the gallows pole
Hangin' from the gallows pole)
