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 up at midnight in the hanging tree.


Are you, Are you

Coming to the tree

Where the dead man called for his love one to flee.

Strange things did happen here.

No stranger would it be,

If we met up 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 up 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 be,

If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree.
