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, ridin' many a mile.
Well, father did you bring me any silver? father, did you bring
Me any 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 sweetheart, ridin' many a mile.

Well, sweetheart did you bring any silver? sweetheart, did you
Bring a little gold
Or did you come to see me hangin' from the gallows pole?

Yes, i brought a little silver. yes, i brought a little gold. i
Didn't come to see you hangin' from the gallows pole.
