Gallows Pole Lyrics
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?
Did you bring me gold?
Did you come to see me hanging by the gallows pole?
I didn't bring no silver
Didn't bring no gold
Come to see you hang by the gallows pole
Well, Hangman, hangman slack your rope
slack it for awhile
Think I see my mother coming
Riding many a mile
Little mama did you bring me silver?
Did you bring me gold?
Did you come to see me hanging by the gallows pole?
I didn't bring no silver
Couldn't get no gold
Come to see you hang by the gallows pole
Hangman, hangman slack your rope
Slack it for awhile
Think I see my sweetheart coming
Riding many a mile
Honey did you bring me silver?
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 gold
Brought you a little everything to keep you from the gallows pole
slack it for awhile
Think I see my father coming
Riding many a mile
Did you bring me gold?
Did you come to see me hanging by the gallows pole?
Didn't bring no gold
Come to see you hang by the gallows pole
slack it for awhile
Think I see my mother coming
Riding many a mile
Did you bring me gold?
Did you come to see me hanging by the gallows pole?
Couldn't get no gold
Come to see you hang by the gallows pole
Slack it for awhile
Think I see my sweetheart coming
Riding many a mile
Did you bring me gold?
Did you come to see me hang by the gallows pole?
Hanging by the gallows pole?
Brought you a gold
Brought you a little everything to keep you from the gallows pole
