Hangman |
| I killed another man today, it’s hard to believe |
| Well I lost count at thirty and I’ve grown to numb to grieve |
| The bottle helps me cope, when I lay down at night |
| And when the dope rolls through my veins, it all fades out of sight |
| Hangman, hangman, that’s my stock and trade |
| Hangman, hangman, sending bad men to their graves |
| Well who killed who, I ask myself, time and time again |
| God have mercy on the soul of this hangman |
| There’s a woman down the street, named Rosalie McFall |
| She don’t ask me any questions, when I come to call |
| Her body keeps me warm, her words are soft and kind |
| She holds me in her arms till the bad dreams leave my mind |
| Hangman, hangman, that’s my stock and trade |
| Hangman, hangman, sending bad men to their graves |
| Well, who killed who, I ask myself, time and time again |
| God have mercy on the soul of this hangman |
| God have mercy on the soul of this hangman |
