THE HANGING TREE

THE HANGING TREE - Savage

I gotta tale to tell

I gotta song to make you weep

'Bout it a boy

Dragged through hell

A kid born the wrong side of the sheets

His mama passed early

Papa never gave a d**n

Another hard luck story

Someday a wanted man

Jack went bad

Everyone could see

Now he runs

From the hangin' tree

What you want you gotta take

This kid would want it all

The die was cast lets face it

Always one step beyond the law

He rides like the wind

Got the taste and now greedy

Liquored up and bent on sin

A dozen men fell easy

Jack went bad

Everyone could see

Now he runs

From the hangin' tree

Jack went bad

Everyone could see

Now he runs

From the hangin' tree

Jack went bad

Everyone could see

Now he runs

From the hangin' tree
