the prickly bush - a different thread lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
hang man, hang man, slack your horse a while
i think i see my father coming, traveling many a mile
have you brought me silver or gold to set me free
or have you come to see me hanging high from the gallow tree

[refrain]
no i have not brought you silver, nor gold to set you free
i have come to see you hanging high from the gallow tree

[verse 2]
hang man, hang man, stay your hand a while
i think i see my mother coming… over yonder stile
have you brought me silver or gold to set me free
or have you come to see me hanging high from the gallow tree

[refrain]
no i have not brought you silver, nor gold to set you free
i have come to see you hanging high from the gallow tree

[verse 3]
hang man, hang man, hold your rope for me
i think i see my lover coming, over yonder sea
have you brought me silver or gold to set me free
or have you come to see me hanging high from the gallow tree
[refrain / resolution]
yes, i’ve brought you silver and gold to set you free
i’ll save your body from the cold, cold ground
and your neck from the hangman’s tree

[outro]
oh that pr*ckly bush, it pr*cks my heart full sore
if i ever get out that pr*ckly bush, i’ll never get in no more
