Hang Me Oh Hang me  and I'll Be dead and gone
Hang Me Oh Hang me
I'll be dead and gone
wouldn't mind the hanging
but the laying in the grave so long
poor boy
I been all around this world
I been all around cape girardeau parts of Arkansas
all around cape girardeau parts of Arkansas
got so god damn hungry
I could hide behind a straw
poor boy
I been all around this world
Hang Me Oh Hang me
I'll be dead and gone
Hang Me Oh Hang me
I'll be dead and gone
wouldn't mind the hanging
but the laying in the grave so long
poor boy
I been all around this world
Went up on a mountain
There I made my stand
Went up on a mountain
There I made my stand
Rifle on my shoulder
And a dagger in my hand
poor boy
I been all around this world
put the noose around my neck
hung me up so high
put the noose around my neck
hung me up so high
last words I heard em say
won't be long now fore you die
poor boy
I been all around this world
Hang Me Oh Hang me and I'll Be dead and gone
Hang Me Oh Hang me
I'll be dead and gone
wouldn't mind the hanging
but the laying in the grave so long
poor boy
I been all around this world
I been all around this world
