Desmond Dekker – Hanging Tree lyrics
The hanging tree
The hanging tree
The hanging tree
The hanging tree

Who will mourn for you when you're gone?
Who will mind your kids when you're gone?
Who will pay our bills when you're gone?
Stop and think of the hanging tree

The hanging tree where I used to be
I left my heart on the hanging tree

Who will mind your kids when you're gone?
Who will mourn for you when you're gone?
Who will pay our bills when you're gone?
Stop and think of the hanging tree

The hanging tree where I used to be
I left my heart on the hanging tree
