Hang me, oh hand me,
I'll be dead and gone.
Hang me, oh hang me,
I'll be dead and gone.
Wouldn't mind the hanging,
But the layin' in a grave so long, poor boy,
I been all around this world.

I been all 'round cape Gigardeau,
Parts of Arkansas.
All around cape Giradeau,
Parts of Arkansas.
Got so god damn hungry,
I could hide behind a straw, poor boy,
I been all around this world.

Went up on a mountain,
There i made my stand.
Went up on a mountain,
There i made my stand.
Rifle on my shoulder,
And a dagger in my hand, poor boy,
I been all around this world.

So hang me, oh hang me,
I'll be dead and gone.
Hang me, oh hang me,
And i'll be dead and gone.
I wouldn't mind the hanging,
But the layin' in a grave so long, poor boy,
I been all around this world.

Put the rope around my neck,
And hung me up so high.
Put the rope around my neck,
Hung me up so high.
Last words i heard 'em say, won't be long now for you die, poor boy,
I been all around this world.

So hang me, oh hang men
I'll be dead and gone.
Hang me, oh hang me,
I'll be dead and gone.
I wouldn't mind the hanging,
But the layin' in a grave, poor boy,
I been all around this world.
