Hangman, hangman, hangman
Slack your rope awhile
I think I see my father
Comin' across the mile
Father, did you bring me any silver
Father, did you bring me any gold
Father, did you come to see me
Hangin' from the gallows pole
Hangman, hangman, hangman
Slack your rope awhile
I think I see my sweetheart
Comin' across tho mile
Sweetheart, did you bring me any silver
Sweetheart, did you bring me any gold
Honey did you come to see me
Hangin' from the gallows pole
Yes, I brought you a little silver
Yes, I brought you a little gold
No, I didn't come to see you
Hangin' from the gallows pole
