  • The Hanging Tree
  • Marty Robbins
  • I came to town to search for gold
  • And I brought with me a memory
  • And I seemed to hear the night winds cry
  • Go hang your dreams on the hanging tree
  • Your dreams of love that will never be
  • Hang your faded dreams on the hanging tree.
  • I searched for gold, and I found my gold
  • And I found a girl who loved just me
  • and I wished that I could love her, too
  • But I left my heart on the hanging tree,
  • Left my heart with a memory
  • And my faded dreams on the hanging tree.
  • Now there were men who craved my gold
  • And meant to take my gold from me
  • Where man is gone he needs no gold
  • So they carried me to the hanging tree
  • To join my dreams and a memory
  • Yes, they carried me to the hanging tree.
  • To really live you must almost die
  • And it happened just that way with me
  • They took my gold and set me free
  • And I walked away from the hanging tree
  • I walked away from the hanging tree
  • And my own true love, she walked with me.
  • That's when I knew that the hanging tree
  • Is the tree of life, new life for me
  • The tree of hope, new hope for me,
  • The tree of love, new love for me,
  • The hanging tree-the hanging tree-the hanging tree.
