Peter, Paul & Mary - Hangman Lyrics
Slack your rope hangman, slack it for a whileI think I see my father comin ridin many a mileFather have you brought me hope or have you paid my feeOr have you come to see me hangin from the gallows tree?I have not brought you hope, I have not paid your feeYes I have come to see you hangin from the gallows tree.Slack your rope hangman, slack it for a whileI think I see my mother comin ridin many a mileMother have you brought me hope or have you paid my feeOr have you come to see me hangin from the gallows tree?I have not brought you hope, I have not paid your feeYes I have come to see you hangin from the gallows tree.Slack your rope hangman, slack it for a whileI think I see my brother comin ridin many a mileBrother have you brought me hope or have you paid my feeOr have you come to see me hangin from the gallows tree?I have not brought you hope, I have not paid your feeYes I have come to see you hangin from the gallows tree.Slack your rope hangman, slack it for a whileI think I see my true love comin riding many a mileTrue love have you brought me hope or have you paid my feeOr have you come to see me hangin from the gallows tree?Yes I have brought you hope, yes I have paid your feeFor Ive not come to see you hangin from the gallows tree.
