Hangtown Ball

My name is Abraham Bell
 I came west in 49
 I came for riches and gold
 Here I met the end of the line
 Have yourselves a Hangtown ball, dancin to the banjo
 Have yourselves a Hangtown ball
 Listen to the wind tonight, you'll hear me calling
 Calling
 My name is Tom Quinn
 It was gamblin' did me in
 The bullets went wild and loose
 They put me in the Hangtown noose
 Have yourselves a Hangtown ball, dancin' to the banjo
 Have yourselves a Hangtown ball
 Listen to the wind tonight, you'll hear me calling
 Calling

 My name is Jud McKee
 ♪
 Two other men and me
 For murder and robbery
 We went swingin' from the old oak tree
 Have yourselves a Hangtown ball, dancin' to the banjo
 Have yourselves a Hangtown ball
 Look up in the moon tonight, you'll see me falling
 Fallin'
 Every day's another day to send another on his way
 The Devil's running loose in old Hangtown
 Every day's another day to beg for mercy, kneel and pray
 Before they string you up and drop you down

 Rob each other, Kill each other
 Father Brother Sister Mother
 The Devil's running loose in old Hangtown.
 Everyday's another day to beg for mercy, kneel and pray
 before they string you up and drop you down
