Gallows Pole (Rough Mix)

Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while

I think I see my friends coming ridin' many mile

A-friends, d' 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 poleHangman, hangman, hold it a little while

I think I see my brother coming, ridin' many mile

Brother, did you get me some silver

Did you get a little gold?A-what did you bring me, my brother

I think I see my sister coming

Ridin' many mile, mile, mile, mileSister, I implore you, take him by the hand

Take him to some shady palace

Save me from the wrath of this man

Please take him, save me from the wrath of this man, manHangman, hangman, upon your face a smile
