Gallows Pole

[Verse 1] Hangman, hangman slack your rope, slack it for a while I think I see my papa comin', ridin' many a mile Papa did you bring me silver? Papa, did you bring me gold? Did you come to see me hangin' by that gallows pole? I couldn't bring no silver, didn't bring no gold I came to see you hangin' boy by the gallows pole [Verse 2] Hangman, hangman, slack your rope, slack it for a while I think I see my mama comin', she's ridin' many a mile Mama, did you bring me silver? Mama, did you bring me gold? Did you come to see me hangin' by that gallows pole? I didn't bring any silver, couldn't bring you any gold I came to see you hangin' child by the gallows pole [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] Hangman, hangman, slack your rope, slack it for a while I think I see my sweetheart, he's ridin' many a mile Honey, did you bring me silver? Honey, did you bring me gold? Did you come to see me hangin' by the gallows pole? Brought you a little silver, I brought you a little gold Didn't come to see you hangin' by that gallows pole Brought you a little silver, I brought you a little gold Didn't come to see you hangin' by that gallows pole
