John Jacob Niles - The Maid Freed From The Gallows

"Sweetheart, sweetheart, sweetheart,
Did you bring gold
For to pay this hangman's fee,
Or did you come to see me swingin'
High from this hangman's tree,
High from this hangman's tree?"

"Darlin', darlin', darlin',
I brought you that gold
For to pay that hangman's fee,
'Cause I don't want to see you swingin', swingin'
High from no hangman's tree,
High from no hangman's tree."
