Hangwoman

Hangwoman, hangwoman

Sleeping in my bed

Got me a hangwoman,

Hanging round my bed.

Lord I dunno but, I think she wants me dead.

Hangwoman, hangwoman

Got me wearing my best clothes.

I said this little hangwoman,

Got me wearing my best clothes.

But if it's for a wedding or a funeral, only she knows

Said if it's a wedding or a funeral, only god knows

You can't stop a fly flying

You can't stop a flood from flooding

You can't stop, a man from lying

You can't stop this girl from tying.

Hangwoman, hangwoman

Tie that noose around my neck

Hangwoman, hangwoman

Tie that noose around my neck

Hangwoman, tie that noose, so our love would never break
