Der Galgen (engl Translation) Lyrics

THE GALLOWS  
 
Hey hangman, you`re getting silver 
Give me time for it 
Look my father is coming 
He`s bringing gold to buy my freedom 
Son, I`m not bringing silver 
I have never stolen anything 
You know I have nothing 
With which to fetch you from the gallows 
 
Hey hangman, have mercy 
Wait half a day 
My rich friend is bringing you 
everything he can carry 
He`s bringing you a bit of silver  
He`s bringing you a bit of gold 
He`s bringing you a bit of something 
With which to fetch me from the gallows 
 
Hey play for my life father 
Stop the hangman 
See my friend on the horizon 
Has what he has bought 
Finally you bring silver 
Have stolen gold for me 
Ran around for days on end 
Do you want to fetch from the gallows 
 
But I`m not bringing you silver 
I don`t want to give you gold 
I`m just coming round 
I want to see you on the gallows 
You`re not getting silver from me 
You`re not getting gold from me 
To see you at the gallows is all I wanted 
 
He`s only coming to ese me hanged 
God help me he wants to see me hanged
