Are you, are you /
Coming to the tree /
Where they strung up a man, they say 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/
Wear a necklace of rope/
Side by side with me/
Strange things did happen here/
No stranger would it seem/
If we met up at midnight/
In the hanging tree/
