Lyrics

In a tired little cabin, on a sleepless night
I watched daddy slip off
He rode right out of sight
His line of work, was an honorable sin Mama prayed when I grow up, I wouldn’t follow after him
From town to town, I find my work
Lay on a feather bed made of dirt
I’m moving quick, I tend not to stick around
A poor man’s got poor ways
And living easy ain’t always right
‘cause there’s 13 loops in the knot I tie
I worked my way back to my hometown
This hangman’s hands are tired
They’re worn and battered down
One more job and one more loose end to tie
I don't know if I have it in me, to take another life
From town to town, I find my work
Lay on a feather bed made of dirt
I move quick, luck ain’t always on my side
A poor man’s got poor ways
And living easy ain’t always right
‘cause there’s 13 loops in the knot I Tie
Well, I found myself in
A predicament I’d never been
An old friend, doomed to swing at my hand
A life I would save
But a job id fail
My one true friend, I wish you well
Well, the price I’d have to pay, for letting him go
They'll swing me from my gallows
Just my body left for show
Well this line of work, was an honorable sin
But I earned my keep
Just like my old man did
