The Hanged Man
American Gospel

I gave up my rights for a read tonight

I was at the mercy of the cards

They said that I lost love and the loss was right

Now I'm a mind reader with an extra eye

And I'm a hanged man up in a tree again

Trying to figure out just where to go

Don't nobody save me

Yea no one will save me


I'm trying my best

To make it work

But it's taking time

So wait for me, please wait for me


Just wait for me

Just wait for me


There was a burst of light and I was feeling right

Finally an answer for my prayers

She said that I'd get rich in a couple months

And all the friends I had were a curse from God

Now I'm a hanged man up in a tree again

And I'm just gonna stay up here for good

Maybe I'll just die here

Or hang for another year
