The Hanging Tree

Are you, are you coming to the tree
Where they strung up a man, they say, who murdered three?
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree

Are you, are you coming to the tree
Where a dead man called out for his love to flee?
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree

Are you, are you coming to the tree
Where I told you to run, so we'd both be free?
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree

Are you, are you coming to the tree
Wear a necklace of hope, side by side with me?
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree

Are you, are you coming to the tree
Where they strung up a man, they say, who murdered three
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree

Are you, are you coming to the tree
Where the dead man called out for his love to flee?
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree

Are you, are you coming to the tree
Where I told you to run, so we'd both be free?
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree

Are you, are you coming to the tree
Where they strung up a man, they say, who murdered three
(They say, who murdered three)
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree

Are you, are you coming to the tree
Where the dead man called out for his love to flee?
(For his love to flee)
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree

Are you, are you coming to the tree
Where the dead man called out for his love to flee?
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree
