Do you remember the bridge?
The bridge that was standing in ruin

Do you remember the sign?
Demons and witches were doing


They say it's a bad place
They say it's a magic place


Deep down under
The soil of this unholy land
Deep down under

The roots of a tree they have damned

It's the Old Oak Hanging Tree

It's the Old Oak Hanging Tree

[Solo: Shermann]


Nothing will grow in the ground
The Old Oak is killing it all

If you are ever around
Beware of the Oak and its charm


It's the Old Oak Hanging Tree
It's the Old Oak Hanging Tree


The Old Oak might make you blind
The Old Oak might trick your eyes
Hypnotized.....


It's a bad sign
When the Autumn comes and the leaves are gone

Oh it's a bad sign
The Oak must feed in order to breed
Bad sign....... Bad sign

It's a bad sign when the Autumn comes
And the leaves are gone
It's a nightmare found

I wonder... what made this magic tree so

Hang with me, hang with the hangman

Another season in another century
Hang with me, hang with the hangman
Blood from the madmen we hung in that tree

Blood to the ground
Blood to the roots.... Red


All around the Old Oak
Deep into the ground they buried them
Indians of ancient times

Saw it as a holy shrine

Can you believe, sacrificing their own


Must have been a mighty GOD
To receive a gift of life

All the people must have known
Happiness would come if sown


Can you believe, sacrificing their own

[Solo: Denner]


The Old Oak might make you blind
The Old Oak might trick your eyes

Hypnotized.....

[Solo: Shermann]


No! Don't hang with me
As I go back to the Old Oak tree
