hang me high

2019-01, words & music by H. LANGE, CD: TWENTYFIVE (BM 1620)

HANG ME HIGH - HANG ME HIGH - HANG ME HIGH

WALKIN' THROUGH MY DESERT'S NIGHT
NO MAN'S LAND, NO PAIN NOR FRIGHT
STUMBLIN' THERE NIGHT BY NIGHT, NEED NO LEADER, NEED NO GUIDE

I CAN'T ESCAPE THOSE DIRTY THOUGHTS
LIVIN' DEVIL, PRAISIN' LORD
MY MIND IS BROKEN I CAN'T SEE, I'M LOOKIN' FOR A WAY TO FLEE

HANG ME HIGH - HANG ME HIGH
I CAN'T LIVE THIS CRAWLIN' LIFE, I'M NOT WORTH THIS LOVIN' WIFE
LOOKIN' FOR MY DAY TO DIE, DO ME A FAVOR

HANG ME HIGH, LET ME DIE
MAKE ME TOUCH THE SKY
HANG ME HIGH

DAY BY DAY I DO MY JOB, SEEMS LIKE BEING ON THE TOP
NO ONE LOOKS BEHIND THAT FACE, NO ONE KNOWS MY DARKER DAYS

HANG ME HIGH - HANG ME HIGH

I CAN'T LIVE THIS CRAWLIN' LIFE, I'M NOT WORTH THIS LOVIN' WIFE
LOOKIN' FOR MY DAY TO DIE, DO ME A FAVOR

HANG ME HIGH, LET ME DIE
MAKE ME TOUCH THE SKY HANG ME HIGH
HANG ME HIGH - HANG ME (HIGH)
