The Hanging Tree |
| Passing through the arms of satan |
| Reaching for the hands of god |
| Robbing every mind for wisdom |
| Running so he won't get caught |
| He's outlawed by majority |
| Been branded all his life |
| Some say that he's a sinner man |
| As he rides from day to night |
| He's a bad man, so they say |
| Living for his love and living free |
| Riding swift and secretly |
| So he'll miss the hanging tree |
| Wounded spirit on the wind |
| Riding to his dream and destiny |
| He's laughing at the wanted posters |
| Calling for his friends to see |
| Laughing aloud as he rides away |
| Kicking up the dust with speed |
| Time hands him down a pathway |
| And freedom is a horse he rides |
| Glory is a dream he's after |
| And fortune is his heart's delight |
| Riding swift and secretly |
| So he'll miss the hanging tree |
| Wounded spirit on the wind |
| Riding to his dream and destiny |
