Hangman Lyrics - Kingston Trio

Nick Reynolds/Adam Yagodka 

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.
