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.
