Lyrics The Tallest Man On Earth – Hang Me

Hang me oh hang me and I’ll be dead and gone.
Hang me oh hang me, and I’ll be dead and gone.
I wouldn’t mind the hangin’, just laying in this grave so long.
Poor boy I’ve been all around the world.

Been all round cape Jordan, and parts of Arkansas,
been around cape Jordan and parts of Arkansas.
I got so god damn hungry, I could hide behind a straw.
Poor boy I’ve been all around the world.

So I went up on the mountain, there I made my stand.
Went up on the mountain, there I made my stand.
Rifle on my shoulder, a dagger swinging in my hand.
Poor boy I’ve been all around the world.

Hang me oh hang me and I’ll be dead and gone.
Hang me oh hang me, and I’ll be dead and gone.
I wouldn’t mind the hangin’, just laying in this grave so long.
Poor boy I’ve been all around the world.

So put the rope around my neck, and hung me up so high.
He put the rope around my neck and hung me up so high.
What’s worse I heard him saying was, it won’t be long before you die.

Oh hang me oh hang me and I’ll be dead and gone.
Hang me oh hang me, and I’ll be dead and gone.
I wouldn’t mind the hangin’, just laying in this grave so long.
Poor boy I’ve been all around the world.
