Willie watson - Gallows Pole lyrics

Wait a little while Hangman Wait a little while and see I think I see my father coming way across the sea. Father did you bring me silver? Father did you bring some gold? What did you bring me dear father To keep me from the Gallows Pole? I didn't bring no silver I didn't bring no gold I come to see you hanging From the Gallows Pole. So wait a little while Hangman Wait a little while and see I think I see my mother coming From way across the sea. Mother did you bring me silver? Mother did you bring some gold? Did you come to see me hanging from the Gallows Pole? I didn't bring no silver Didn't bring no gold I come to see you swinging From the Gallows Pole. Yes, You're swinging Yes, From the Gallows Pole. Yes, You're swinging, Yes, From the Gallows Pole. Slack up your rope Hangman, Slack it for a while, I think I see my own true lover Riding many miles. So lover did you bring me silver? Lover did you bring some gold? Did you come to see me hanging From the Gallows Pole? Oh yes I brought you silver, I brought a little gold, Brought a little of everything To keep you from the Gallows Pole. Yes, I brought it Yes, To keep you from the Gallows Pole. Yes, I brought it Yes, Yo keep you from the Gallows Pole.
