Marty Robbins The Hanging Tree Lyrics

I came to town
To search for gold
And I brought with me
A memory
And I seem to hear
The night wind cry
Go hang your dreams on the hangin' tree
Your dreams of love that could never be
Hang your faded dreams
On the hangin' tree

I searched for gold
And I found my gold
And I found a girl
Who loved just me
And I wished that I
Could love her too
But I'd left my heart on the hangin' tree
I'd left my heart with a memory
And a faded dream
On the hangin' tree

Now there were men
Who craved my gold
And meant to take
My gold from me
When a man is gone
He needs no gold
So they carried me to the hangin' tree
To join my dreams and a memory
Yes they carried me
To the hangin' tree.

To really live
You must almost die
And it happened just
That way with me
They took the gold
And set me free
And I walked away from the hangin' tree
I walked away from the hangin' tree
And my own true love
She walked with me

That's when I knew
That the hangin' tree
Was a tree of life
New life for me
A tree of hope, new hope for me
A tree of love, new love tor me
The hangin' tree
The hangin' tree
The hangin' tree
