Letra de Gallows Pole
Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while I think I see my friends coming - riding many a mile Friends, did you get some silver? Did you get a little gold? What did you bring me, my dear friends To keep me from the gallows pole? What did you bring me to keep me from the gallows pole? I couldn't get no silver - I couldn't get no gold You know that we're too damn poor To keep you from the gallows pole Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while I think I see my brother coming - riding many a mile Brother, did you get me some silver? Did you get a little gold? What did you bring me, my brother To keep me from the gallows pole? Brother, I brought you some silver I brought a little gold I brought a little of everything To keep you from the gallows pole Yes, I brought you to keep you from the gallows pole Hangman, hangman, turn your head awhile I think I see my sister coming - riding many a mile Sister, I implore you - take him by the hand Take him to some shady bower Save me from the wrath of this man Please take him Save me from the wrath of this man, man, man Hangman, hangman, upon your face a smile Tell me that I'm free to ride Ride for many a mile, mile Oh, yes, you got a fine sister She warmed my blood from cold She brought my blood to boiling hot To keep you from the gallows pole Your brother brought me silver Your sisetr she warmed my soul But now I laugh and pull so hard And see you swinging on the gallows pole But now I laugh and pull so hard And see you swinging on the gallows pole Swingin' on the gallows pole --
