Hanging Hiram Hall

lyrics

hanging hiram hall
hanging hiram hall
for his mom he took the fall
hanging hiram hall

wedding bells did ring
the whole family did sing
all but one would raise their voice
the groom's mother had no choice

she never liked that girl
cause to her son she meant the world
hiram.....was a real good boy
his momma used him like a toy

doing anything she'd ask
until murder was the task
Ida Bell got in her way
said son your wife she cannot stay

just send her out with the bucket
and you throw her in when she ain't lookin'

& down the well
Ida Bell, who was behind her
who?

Hiram listened to his Ma
said son go shoot your Pa
and in his sights he saw him
but the nerve to kill he had none

& down the well
Ida fell, who was behind her
who?


hanging hiram hall
hanging hiram hall
for his mom he took the fall
hanging hiram hall
