neil young crazy horse – gallows pole lyrics
hangman, hangman, slack your rope
slack it for a while
i think i see my father 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 the gallows pole?
i couldn’t bring no silver
didn’t bring no gold
i came to see you hangin’, boy
by the gallows pole.
hangman, hangman, slack your rope
slack it for a while
i think i see my mother 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 the gallows pole?
i didn’t bring any silver
didn’t bring you any gold
i come to see you hangin’, child
by that gallows pole.
hangman, hangman, slack your rope
slack it for a while
i think i see my sweetheart
she’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?
i brought you a little silver
i brought you a little gold
didn’t come to see you hangin’
by that gallows pole.
i brought you a little silver
i brought you a little gold
didn’t come to see you hangin’
by that gallows pole
