Are you, Are you
Coming to the tree
Where they strung up a man they say murdered three

Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree

Are you, Are you
Coming to the tree
Where the dead man called out for his love to flee

Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up 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 did happen here
No stranger would it be

If we met up 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 did happen here
No stranger would it be

If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree.
