Change My Luck Blues |
| Hangman’s rope is so tough and strong |
| Oh, the hangman’s rope is so tough and strong |
| They gonna hang me because I done something wrong |
| I wanna tell you the gallis, Lord’s a fearful sight |
| I wanna tell you the gallis, Lord’s a fearful sight |
| Hang me in the mornin' and cut me down at night |
| While a mean ol' hangman is waitin' to tighten up that noose |
| Oh, the mean ol' hangman is waitin' to tighten up that noose |
| Lord, I’m so scared, I’m trembling in my shoes |
| Jury heard my case and they said my hand was red |
| heard my case and said my hand was red |
| And judge, he sentenced me, be hanging till I’m dead |
| They crowd 'round the courthouse and the time is going fast |
| Oh, they crowd 'round the courthouse and the time is going fast |
| Soon a good-for-nothin' killer is gonna breath his last |
| Lord, I’m almost dyin', gasping for my breath |
| Lord, I’m almost dyin', gasping for my breath |
| And a triflin' woman waiting to celebrate my death |
