Hangman

Hangman, hangman, hangman, slack your rope a while. Think I see my brother,
ridin’many a mile.
Well, brother, did you bring me silver? Brother, did you bring me gold
Or did you come to see me hangin’from the gallows poles?
No, I didn’t bring you any silver. No, I didn’t bring any gold. I just come to see you hangin’from the gallows pole.
Hangman, hangman, hangman, slack your rope a while. Think I see my father,

No, I didn’t bring you any silver. No, I didn’t bring any gold. I just come to see you hangin’from the gallows pole.
Hangman, hangman, hangman, slack your rope a while. Think I see my sweetheart,
