The Hanging Tree Lyrics - Marty Robbins - All-time Greatest Hits - Marty Robbins

I came to town to search for gold 

And I brought with me a memory 

And I seemed to hear the night winds cry 

Go hang your dreams on the hanging tree 

Your dreams of love that will never be 

Hang your faded dreams on the hanging 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 left my heart on the hanging tree, 

Left my heart with a memory 

And my faded dreams on the hanging tree. 

 

Now there were men who craved my gold 

And meant to take my gold from me 

Where man is gone he needs no gold 

So they carried me to the hanging tree 

To join my dreams and a memory 

Yes, they carried me to the hanging tree. 

 

To really live you must almost die 

And it happened just that way with me 

They took my gold and set me free 

And I walked away from the hanging tree 

I walked away from the hanging tree 

And my own true love, she walked with me.
