Gallows Pole |
| 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 |
| To keep you from the Gallows Pole |
