Lyrics and translation Odetta - Gallows Pole
Hangman,
hangman
slack
your
rope
Палач,
палач,
ослабь
петлю,
Slack
it
for
awhile
Ослабь
хоть
ненадолго.
Think
I
see
my
father
coming
Кажется,
мой
батюшка
едет,
Riding
many
a
mile
Много
миль
проехал
он.
Papa
did
you
bring
me
silver?
Папа,

привез
серебра
мне?
Did
you
bring
me
gold?
Ты
привез
ли
золота?
Did
you
come
to
see
me
hanging
by
the
gallows
pole?
Ты
приехал
повидать,
как
подвесят
меня
на
виселице?
I
didn't
bring
no
silver
Не
привез
я
серебра,
Didn't
bring
no
gold
Не
привез
я
золота.
Come
to
see
you
hang
by
the
gallows
pole
Приехал
повидать,
как
подвесят
тебя
на
виселице.
Well,
Hangman,
hangman
slack
your
rope
Что
ж,
палач,
палач,
ослабь
петлю,
Slack
it
for
awhile
Ослабь
хоть
ненадолго.
Think
I
see
my
mother
coming
Кажется,
моя
матушка
едет,
Riding
many
a
mile
Много
миль
проехала.
Little
mama
did
you
bring
me
silver?
Мама,

привезла
серебра
мне?
Did

Did
you

to
see
me
hanging
by
the
gallows
pole?
Ты
приехала
повидать,

I
didn't
bring
no
silver
Не
привезла
я
серебра,
Couldn't
get
no
gold
Не
смогла
добыть
золота.
Come
to
see
you
hang
by
the
gallows
pole
Приехала
повидать,
как
подвесят
тебя
на
виселице.
