The Gallows - Possessed By Paul James

Go ahead!

Yeah!

Don’t tell on Larry’s wife

Oh, he’s hanging in the shadows

Don’t tell on Larry’s wife

Oh, he’s in the gallows

Oh, he’s hanging cuz' he stole some bread

Oh, he’s hanging all the while

While his child’s hungry, almost done

He’s hanging with the smile

He’s hanging with the smile-he-oh-hey, do it again!

Don’t tell on Larry’s wife

Oh his little child is crying

He’s crying cuz' he’s all alone

And his father lays there dying

Oh he’s dying cuz' he stole some bread

He’s dying all the while

Oh, his child’s hungry, he’s almost dead

But he’s dying with a smile

Oh he’s dying with a smile

Oh he’s dying with a smile

Oh he’s dying with a smile

Oh he’s dying with a smile

Oh he’s dying with a smile

Do it again!

Don’t tell on Larry’s wife

Oh, his little boy is dying

He’s dying cuz' he’s all alone

His father ain’t done smiling

Oh, he’s smiling cuz' he’s far from home

And his little boy is dying

Oh, he’s smiling and he’s dying

And his wife, oh she’s crying

And his wife, oh she’s crying

And his wife, oh she’s crying

His wife is crying

Oh lordy lord, oh lordy lord, his wife is crying!
