about

The great American pasttime.

lyrics

Hey Mama, why we always waiting on you
We done everything we was supposed to do
Do your lipstick and fix up your pretty hair
'Cause there's a picnic down at the ol' town square

Can you hear the sound of hammers hitting pine
Rapid work on a wooden stage so high
To get it ready for a matinee
To send another to his judgement day

Hanging Day, I saw it posted on the board
Sunday morning, after congregating with the Lord
Bring a big lunch 'cause everybody's hungry today
They can't wait 'cause Sunday's always hanging day

Hey Mama, dry up your hazel eyes
Hey Daddy, better straighten up that tie
A pretty girl waiting on a goodbye kiss
There's something no one's gonna wanna miss

Hanging Day, I saw it posted on the board...

Hey Henry everybody's waiting on you
Is there a last thing that you'd like to say or do?
You're the one that everybody's waiting to see
I'll say a prayer, God have mercy on thee

Hanging Day, I saw it posted on the board...
