Lyrics:

They call me hangin' Johnny
Away hi-o
They say I hang for money
So hang, boys, hang

They say I hung my mother
Away hi-o
And then I hung my brother
So hang boys hang

I hung my sister Nancy
Away hi-o
Because I took her fancy
So hang boys hang

A rope, a beam, a ladder
Away hi-o
I hung them all together
So hang boys hang

I'd hang a bloated friar
Away hi-o
I'd hang a blasted liar
So hang boys hang

They call me hangin' Johnny
away hi-o
But I never hung nobody
So hang, boys, hang
