The Hanging Tree

Are you, are you comin' to the tree?

Where they strung up a man, they say, who murdered three

Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be

If we met at midnight in the hanging tree

Are you, are you comin' to the tree

Where dead man called out for his love to flee?

Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be

If we met at midnight in the hanging tree

Are you, are you comin' to the tree

Where I told you to run, so we'd both be free?

Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be

If we met at midnight in the hanging tree

Are you, are you comin' to the tree

Where necklace of hope, side by side with me?

Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be

If we met at midnight in the hanging tree

Are you, are you comin' to the tree

Where I told you to run, so we'd both be free?

Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be

If we met at midnight in the hanging tree

Are you, are you comin' to the tree?

Where they strung up a man, they say, who murdered three

Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be

If we met at midnight in the hanging tree

Are you, are you comin' to the tree

Where the dead man called out for his love to flee?

Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be

If we met at midnight in the hanging tree
