Below the Gallows Tree (Live) - The Weavers[00:00:00]
Written By:Erik Darling/Ronnie Gilbert/Lee Hays/Fred Hellerman[00:00:01]
Farewell ye dungeons dark and strong[00:00:20]
Farewell farewell to thee[00:00:24]
MacPherson's song will not be long[00:00:28]
Upon the gallows tree[00:00:32]
Say ron-ten-lee say won-ten-lee[00:00:35]
Say don-ten-lee played he[00:00:39]
He played a tune and he danced aroun'[00:00:43]
Below the gallows tree[00:00:47]
Little did my mother know[00:00:53]
When first she cradled me[00:00:56]
That I would become a rovin' boy[00:01:00]
And die on the gallows tree[00:01:04]
Say ron-ten-lee say won-ten-lee[00:01:08]
Say don-ten-lee played he[00:01:11]
He played a tune and he danced aroun'[00:01:15]
Below the gallows tree[00:01:19]
Untie these bands from off my hands[00:01:25]
And give to me my bow[00:01:29]
I've naught to leave my brave Scotland[00:01:32]
But a tune before I go[00:01:36]
Say ron-ten-lee say won-ten-lee[00:01:40]
Say don-ten-lee played he[00:01:44]
He played a tune and he danced aroun'[00:01:47]
Below the gallows tree[00:01:52]
There's some come here to see me hanged[00:01:57]
And some to steal my fiddle[00:02:01]
But before that I do part with her[00:02:05]
I'll break her through the middle[00:02:09]
He took the fiddle into both his hands[00:02:12]
He broke it o'er his knee[00:02:16]
Sayin' When I am gone no other hands[00:02:20]
Shall ever play on thee[00:02:24]
Say ron-ten-lee say won-ten-lee[00:02:27]
Say don-ten-lee played he[00:02:31]
He played a tune and he danced aroun'[00:02:35]
Below the gallows tree[00:02:39]
He played a tune and danced aroun'[00:02:45]
And they hanged him to the tree[00:02:49]
