Текст песни: Gallows Pole + перевод

Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while

I think I see my friends coming, riding many a mile

Friends, 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, 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 many 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 mad, man

Hangman, hangman, upon your face a smile

Tell me that I’m free to ride

Ride for many mile, mile, mile

Oh yes, you got a fine sister

She warmed my blood from cold

She warmed my blood to boiling hot to keep you from the gallows pole

Your brother brought me silver, your sister warmed my soul

But now I laugh and pull so hard, see you swinging from the gallows pole

But now I laugh and pull so hard, see you swinging from the gallows pole

Swingin' on the gallows pole!

Swingin' on the gallows pole!

Swingin' on the gallows pole!

Swingin' on the gallows pole

Pole, pole, pole, pole, pole, pole, yeah

Ah-ha-ha

Swingin'

Swingin' on the gallows pole!

I gotta swing!

See-saw marjory daw

I gotta swing!

See-saw knock at my door

I gotta sing

Keep on singing
