Текст песни: Gallows Tree (Gallows Pole) + перевод

Hangman, hangman slack your rope

Slack it for awhile

Think I see my father coming

Riding many a mile

Papa did you bring me silver?

Papa did you bring me gold?

Did you come to see me hanging by the gallows pole?

Well, I couldn’t bring no silver

Didn’t bring no gold

I’ve come to see you hang by the gallows pole

Hangman, hangman slack your rope

Slack it for awhile

Think I see my mother coming

Riding many a mile

Riding many a mile

Well, Mama did you bring me silver?

Mama did you bring me gold?

Did you come to see me hang by the gallows pole?

I didn’t bring no silver

Didn’t bring no gold

I’ve come to see you hanging by the gallows pole

By the gallows pole — oh God!

Hangman, hangman slack your rope

Slack it for awhile

Think I see my sweetheart coming

Riding many a mile

Riding many a mile — oh God!

Riding many a mile

Honey did you bring me silver?

Honey did you bring me gold?

Did you come to see me hang by the gallows pole?

Hanging by the gallows pole?

I brought you silver

Brought you a little gold

Didn’t come to see you hanging

By the gallows pole

By the gallows pole
