The Hangin' Tree
4
I came to town to search for gold
5
And I brought with me a memory
6
And I seem to hear the night wind cry,
7
"Go hang your dreams on the hangin' tree
8
Your dreams of love that could never be
9
Hang your faded dreams on the hangin' tree!"
10
I searched tor gold and I found my gold
11
And I found a girl who loved just me
12
And I wished that I could love her too
13
But I'd left my heart on the hangin' tree
14
I'd left my heart with a memory
15
And a faded dream on the hangin' tree.
16
Now there were men who craved my gold
17
And meant to take my gold from me
18
When a man is gone he needs no gold
19
So they carried me to the hangin' tree
20
To join my dreams and a memory
21
Yes they carried me to the hangin' tree.
22
To really live you must almost die
23
And it happened just that way with me
24
They took the gold and set me free
25
And I walked away from the hangin' tree
26
I walked away from the hangin' tree
27
And my own true love, she walked with me!
28
That's when I knew that the hangin' tree
29
Was a tree of life, new life for me
30
A tree of hope, new hope for me
31
A tree of love, new love tor me
32
The hangin' tree, the hangin' tree, the hangin' tree!
