Well, raise 'em high and string 'em up 

We've gotcha, now you're good as dead 

From the gallows to your grave 

It's gonna take your life away 



Crime they say, does not pay 

And you're the living proof 

But not for long, cause you'll be hung 

By your neck 



Thirteen knots around your neck 

Will really give you quite a stretch 

From the gallows to your grave 

It's gonna take your breath away 



Death by hanging 

Death from the gallows 

Death by hanging around 

Death by hanging 

Death from the gallows 

Death by hanging around 



Raise the slime and string 'em up 

We've gotcha, now you're good as gone 

From the gallows to your grave 

It's gonna take it all away 



The crowd they cheer as you climb the stairs 

Finally you're a star 

But not for long, cause you'll be hung 

By your neck 



Death by hanging 

Death from the gallows 

Death by hanging around 

Death by hanging 

Death from the gallows 

Death by hanging around 



Crime they say, does not pay 

And you're the living proof 

But not for long, cause you'll be hung 

By your neck 



Death by hanging 

Death from the gallows 

Death by hanging around 

Death by hanging 

Death from the gallows 

Death by hanging around
