3 string cigar box guitar by Keith Alan
lyrics:
Hangman is coming
Down to Caroline
Gonna be a hanging
They're gonna put me on that line
Come early in the morning
'bout sunrise
There's gonna be a hanging
there will be justice for a crime
Early in the morning
when the rooster crow
the hangman is coming
gonna put that line around my throat
Early in the morning
just about sunrise
there's gonna be a hanging
gonna be justice for a crime
Can you hear the cock crow
It's just about day
I can see the hangman
coming to take my life away
The hangman is coming
down to Caroline
there's gonna be a hanging
they're gonna put me on that line

I got nothing but "Good" to say . Thanks for posting , I've been waiting !
It's playing like you do that encourages the rest of us...keep it up
Ohhh! Great lyrics! Thanks for posting them.
MadPaddler...What a cool handle! Thanks so much for your encouragement.
Wow, yet another reason to watch your videos, your original music is the best! I know I cant get enough of what you do keep sharing...oh, and teaching. Inspiring to say the least even to a novice like me. Time for lesson 2 of your amazing grace.
You always make me smile Uncle John. I'll be glad to share the lyrics but I like keeping my face hidden for now. ;>)
Thanks so much Roadkill! I'm proud of this song for sure. Thanks so much for your comment.
Wait! Not everything is wonderful - I''d like to see your face and the lyrics!
Always quite pleased to see something new from you. This did not disappoint. Love it. Like John Maw said - all is just wonderful- the sound, the playing and percussion and the singing. One of the best. I think you are every bit as good as Bonnie Raitt on this one.
And Kieth makes FINE stuff.
Everything about this is just wonderful. A really fine song very well sung. Super playing, both the guitar and percussion. One of the best things I have heard for a long time.
