Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where they strung up a man they say murdered three
Strange things have happened 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 man called out for his love to flee
Strange things have happened 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 have happened 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 have happened here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight
In the hanging tree.
