War Hippies - The Hangman Lyrics




He's been runnin' with the devil and it ain't no lie
Livin' in the shadows of the pale moon light
She's been runnin' with the angels everyone could see
God fearin' church goin' honestly

That silver tongued devil swept her off her feet
Promised her the world just to steal her dreams
He knew it was comin' it was his last night
Lord when they caught him shoulda heard him cry

Good Lord willin' and the creek don't rise
Town folk hollerin' hang 'em up high
Sin is sin in the good Lord's eye
Cnd the hangman's waitin' just to watch you die

Dead man walkin'
Dead man walkin'

He said I didn't do it now that's the truth
Tell me how I could've cause there ain't no proof
Law man said boy we ain't no fool
You're gonna meet your maker at the end of that noose

Good Lord willin' and the creek don't rise
Town folk hollerin' hang 'em up high
Sin is sin in the good Lord's eye
Cnd the hangman's waitin' just to watch you die

Dead man walkin'
Dead man walkin'

Headed to the gallows you could hear him say
Baby girl promise it'll be okay
She begged and pleaded said you have to wait
The law man said girl you're way too late

Good Lord willin' and the creek don't rise
Town folk hollerin' hang 'em up high
Sin is sin in the good Lord's eye
Cnd the hangman's waitin' just to watch you die

Good Lord willin' and the creek don't rise
Town folk hollerin' hang 'em up high
Sin is sin in the good Lord's eye
But you might've got it wrong if the hangman cries

Strung 'em up high swingin' side by side
Devil on the left and an angel on the right

Dead man walkin'
