Hang Me, Oh Hang Me (Live)

Hang Me, Oh Hang Me (Live) - Oscar Isaac/Punch Brothers/The Secret Sisters

Written by：Traditional/Oscar Isaac/T Bone Burnett

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 layin' in a grave so long poor boy

I been all around this world

I been all 'round cape Gigardeau

Parts of Arkansas

All around cape Giradeau

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 layin' in a 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 rope around my neck

Hung me up so high

Put the rope around my neck

Hung me up so high

Last words I heard 'em say

Won't be long now for you die poor boy

I been all around this world

So hang me oh hang me

I'll be dead and gone

Hang me oh hang me

I'll be dead and gone

I wouldn't mind the hanging

But the layin' in a grave so long poor boy

I been all around this world

I been all around this world
