Hanging Johnny
[Verse 1]
Oh, they call me Hanging Johnny
Away, boys, away
But hanging ain't so funny
So hang, boys, hang

[Verse 2]
Come hang, come haul together
Away, boys, away
Come hang for better weather
So hang, boys, hang

[Verse 3]
Oh, they say I hanged my mother
Away, boys, away
My sister and my brother
So hang, boys, hang

[Verse 4]
A rope, a beam, a ladder
Away, boys, away
I'll hang ye all together
So hang, boys, hang
[Verse 5]
I'd hang the mates and skippers
Away, boys, away
I'd hang them by their flippers
So hang, boys, hang

[Verse 6]
Oh, I'd hang the highway robber
Away, boys, away
I'd hang the burglar jobber
So hang, boys, hang

[Verse 7]
They say I hung the copper
Away, boys, away
I gave 'em the long dropper
So hang, boys, hang

[Verse 8]
I hanged a rotten liar
Away, boys, away
But I hanged a bleatin' friar
So hang, boys, hang

[Verse 9]
They say I hang for money
Away, boys, away
'Cause hanging ain't so funny
So hang, boys, hang
[Verse 10]
Ah, they call me Hanging Johnny
Away, boys, away
But I never hang nobody
So hang, boys, hang

[Outro]
So hang, boys, hang
