Hangman Swing

There aint no judge, no jury down around El Paso

Hangman posse blazing my trail before I get to Mexico

Thirteen guns were tracking, side the Rio Grande they rode

About a debt I owe, yeah!

Through the heat of the desert sun underneath a blackbirds wing

I keeping one step ahead of the gun

Or Ill be stretching my neck in a noose

Doing the hangman swing

Sheriff wants to lynch me for what I did to his wife

Well how was I to know it was her, but it damn sure was nice

Now they want to see me dancing on the end of a rope

About a debt I owe, yeah!

Through the heat of the desert sun underneath a blackbirds wing

I keeping one step ahead of the gun

Or Ill be stretching my neck in a noose

Doing the hangman swing

Hangman swing (hangman swing)

Its hangman swing, swing, swing

Hangman swing (hangman swing)

Cmon, swing boys, yeah!

Found me bout a half days ride from the border of Mexico

Put a bullet twixt my blades and my neck in a rope

Through the heat of the desert sun underneath a blackbirds wing

I keeping one step ahead of the gun

Or Ill be stretching my neck in a noose

Doing the hangman swing

Yeah, the hangman swing (hangman swing)

Its hangman swing, swing, swing

Hangman swing (hangman swing)

Yeah, the hangman swing (hangman swing)

Its the hangman swing (hangman swing)

Yeah, the hangman swing (hangman swing)

Well the hangman swing (hangman swing)
