The Kingston Trio - Hanna Lee Lyrics

You dusty eyes were soft and glowin' when first I met you, Hannah LeeThere was no way for me a-knowin' the sorrow your sweet caress would bring to meHigh, high, high is the gallows. (Yeah, and it's long) long as the rope that waits for meHigh as the gallows. They'll hang me for your sins, my Hannah LeeYou shot and killed your cruel husband because you found you loved but meAnd then you lied before the jury and they blamed for your sins, my Hanna LeeHigh, high, high is the gallows. (Yeah, and it's long) long as the rope that waits for meHigh as the gallows. They'll hang me for your sins, my Hannah LeeDown at the jail on hangin' mornin', I heard you tell them you had liedYour dusty eyes were soft and glowin' and I saw you hang your head and cryHigh, high, high is the gallows. (Yeah, and it's long) long as the rope that waits for meHigh as the gallows. When they hang my lovin' darlin', Hannah Lee. When they hang my lovin' darlin', Hannah LeeHigh as the gallows. When they hang my lovin' darlin', Hannah Lee. When they hang my lovin' darlin', Hannah Lee
