Slipknot (Hangknot Slipknot) |
Did you ever see a hangman tie a hangknot? |
Did you ever see a hangman tie a hangknot? |
I’ve seen it many a time and he winds, he winds |
After thirteen times he’s got a hangknot |
Tell me will that hangknot slip, no it will not |
Will that hangknot slip, no it will not |
Slip around your neck, but it won’t slip back again |
Hangknot, hangknot, that hangknot |
Did you ever lose your father on a hangknot? |
Did you ever lose your father on a hangknot? |
They hung him from a pole, and they shot him full of holes |
Left him there to rot on that hangknot |
Tell me who makes the laws for that hangknot? |
Who makes the laws for that hangknot? |
Who says who will go to the calaboose? |
Get the hangman’s noose on a hangknot |
I don’t know who makes the law for that hangknot |
I don’t know who makes the law for that hangknot |
But the bones of many a men are whistling in the wind |
Just because they tied their laws with a hangknot |
