Lyrics

The moon was shining through the trees and the wind was whistling low The moon was shining through the trees and the wind was whistling low I came upon a fork in the road, I didn't know which way to go I hit a grave stone with my knee and I fell upon the ground I hit a grave stone with my knee and I fell upon the ground There was someone swaying in the breeze but it did not make a sound Don't look at the hang man Don't look at the hang man Don't look at the hang man A gypsy woman read my cards and she took my twenty bucks A gypsy woman read my cards and she took my twenty bucks She said if you ain't got no future girl, no your future's all used up Don't look at the hang man Don't look at the hang man Don't look at the hang man I left his body in the woods and I took off running south I left his body in thе woods and I took off running south They found me down in Eagle Pass with a pistol in my mouth Don't look at thе hang man Don't look at the hang man Don't look at the hang man Don't look at the hang man
