Hangman's Knee Lyrics - Beck-ola - Jeff Beck Group

Hangman, hangman, slack your noose 

Slack it, oh slack it 

Slack it for a while 

There ain't no use in your hurrying me 

Ain't nothing gonna change things now 

Now I ain't trying to prove your judge is wrong 

And your jury, oh your jury 

I guess I'll know the way out 

And if you kill me with my canvas shirt 

Good god, you could put my lawyer in jail 

Listen 

It's just this twenty two minutes to prepare yourself 

I haven't been in this position before 

Wash your hands, get your .? . 

Find the waistcoat, lock the door. 

And oh! 

Get your .? . 

Oh yeah, get your .? . lock the door 

Come on 

Listen to this one 

Oh hangman, hangman, slack your noose 

Oh slack it, please slack it 

Oh just slack it awhile, give me one more chance 

There ain't no use in you hurryin' me 

Good god, nothing's gonna stop me now 

Oh 

Don't you worry 

Cause you never get your .? . 

Well, might get your waistcoat on 

Ha-ha 

Heh-heh
