Hang Me, Oh Hang Me (Album Version)

Dave Van Ronk
앨범 : Folksinger

Hang me oh hang me
I'll be dead and gone
Hang me oh hang me
I'll be dead and gone
I wouldn't mind the hanging
but the laying in the grave
so long
Poor boy I've been
all around this world
I been all around Cape Girardeau
parts of Arkansas
All around Cape Girardeau
parts of Arkansas
Got so goddamn hungry
I could hide behind a straw
Poor boy I've been
all around this world
Went up on the mountain
there I made my stand
Went up on the mountain
there I made my stand
A rifle on my shoulder
and a dagger in my hand
Poor boy I've been
all around this world
Hang me oh hang me
and I'll be dead and gone
Hang me oh hang me
and I'll be dead and gone
I wouldn't mind the hanging
but the laying in the grave
so long
Poor boy I've been
all around this world
Put the rope around my neck
hung me up so high
Put the rope around my neck
hung me up so high
The last words I heard them say
Won't be long now 'fore you die
Poor boy I've been
all around this world
Hang me oh hang me
and I'll be dead and gone
Hang me oh hang me
I'll be dead and gone
I wouldn't mind the hanging
but the laying in the grave
so long
Poor boy I've been
all around this world
