Tyburn Tree


Tyburn Tree


Tyburn Tree, three legged stool waits.
A public spectacle, a small fee to see
A day out, a holiday.
Tyburn Tree, three legged mare grins.
Popular and rowdy, the best go west
A time to watch, celebrate
They put on a show, dancing high in the sky,
Condemned to delight, prancing by.
Tyburn Tree. Oh, Hanging Tree,
My finest clothes ready, are you ready for me?
