Lyrics
Pick up to six lines to make a card.
Slack your rope, hangman, slack it for a while
I think I see my father comin', ridin' many a mile
Father, have you brought me hope or have you paid my fee
Or have you come to see me hangin' from the gallows tree?
I have not brought you hope, I have not paid your fee
Yes, I have come to see you hangin' from the gallows tree
Slack your rope, hangman, slack it for a while
I think I see my mother comin', ridin' many a mile
Mother have you brought me hope or have you paid my fee
Or have you come to see me hangin' from the gallows tree?
I have not brought you hope, I have not paid your fee
Yes, I have come to see you hangin' from the gallows tree
Slack your rope, hangman, slack it for a while
I think I see my brother comin', ridin' many a mile
Brother have you brought me hope, or have you paid my fee
Or have you come to see me hangin' from the gallows tree?
I have not brought you hope, I have not paid your fee
Yes, I have come to see you hangin' from the gallows tree
Slack your rope, hangman, slack it for a while
I think I see my true love comin', riding many a mile
True love have you brought me hope, or have you paid my fee
Or have you come to see me hangin' from the gallows tree?
Yes, I have brought you hope, yes, I have paid your fee
For I've not come to see you hangin' from the gallows tree
