Gallows Pole
Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,
Think I see my friends coming, Riding a many mile.
Friends, did you get some silver?
Did you get a little gold?
What did you bring me, my dear friends, To keep me from the Gallows Pole?
What did you bring me to keep me from the Gallows Pole?
I couldn't get no silver, I couldn't get no gold,
You know that we're too damn poor to keep you from the Gallows Pole.
Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,
I think I see my brother coming, riding a many mile.
Brother, did you get me some silver?
Did you get a little gold?
What did you bring me, my brother, to keep me from the Gallows Pole?
Brother, I brought you some silver,
I brought a little gold, I brought a little of everything
To keep you from the Gallows Pole.
Yes, I brought you to keep you from the Gallows Pole.
Hangman, hangman, turn your head awhile,
I think I see my sister coming, riding a many mile, mile, mile.
Sister, I implore you, take him by the hand,
Take him to some shady bower, save me from the wrath of this man,
Please take him, save me from the wrath of this man, man.
Hangman, hangman, upon your face a smile,
Pray tell me that I'm free to ride,
Ride for many mile, mile, mile.
Oh, yes, you got a fine sister, She warmed my blood from cold,
Brought my blood to boiling hot To keep you from the Gallows Pole,
Your brother brought me silver, Your sister warmed my soul,
But now I laugh and pull so hard And see you swinging on the Gallows Pole
Swingin' on the gallows pole!
Think I see my friends coming, Riding a many mile.
Friends, did you get some silver?
Did you get a little gold?
What did you bring me, my dear friends, To keep me from the Gallows Pole?
What did you bring me to keep me from the Gallows Pole?
I couldn't get no silver, I couldn't get no gold,
You know that we're too damn poor to keep you from the Gallows Pole.
Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,
I think I see my brother coming, riding a many mile.
Brother, did you get me some silver?
Did you get a little gold?

To keep you from the Gallows Pole.

Šibenice
Kate, kate, zadrž ještě chvíli,
myslím, že se kamarádi blíží,
ujeli nejednu míli.
Kamarádi, sehnali jste trochu stříbra?
Sehnali jste zlaté unce?
Co jste přivezli, drazí přátelé,
abyste mne dostali ze šibenice?
Co jste přivezli, drazí přátelé,
abyste mne dostali ze šibenice?
Nesehnal jsem stříbro, nesehnal jsem zlaté unce,
vždyť víš, jsme zatraceně chudí,
než abychom tě dostali ze šibenice.
Kate, kate, zadrž ještě chvíli,
myslím, že přijíždí bratr,
za sebou nejednu míli.
Bratře, sehnal jsi trochu stříbra?
Sehnal jsi zlaté unce?
Co jsi přivezl, můj bratře,
abys mne dostal ze šibenice?
Bratře, přivezl jsem nějaké stříbro,
přivezl jsem zlaté unce,
přivezl jsem všeho trochu,
abych tě dostal ze šibenice,
jo, přivezl jsem to, abych tě dostal ze šibenice.
Kate, kate, otoč hlavu na chvíli,
myslím, že přijíždí sestra,
ujela nejednu míli.
Sestro, zapřísahám tě, uchop ho za paže,
odveď ho na stinné místo,
ochraň mne před zlobou toho muže,
prosím, odveď ho, ochraň mne před zlobou toho muže.
Kate, kate, teď tvoje tvář se usmívá.
Řekni, prosím, že jsem volný,
vždyť se nikdo nedívá.
Oh, ano, máš milou sestru,
zahřála mé chladné líce,
rozpálila mou tvář do varu,
aby tě dostala ze šibenice.
Tvůj bratr přivezl stříbro,
tvá sestra zahřála mou duši,
ale teď se směji, tahám
a už se houpeš na šibenici.
