Не жди, не жди, 
Путь тебя ведет
К дубу, где в петле
Убийца мертвый ждет.

Странный наш мир, и нам так странно здесь порой.
Под дубом в полночь встретимся с тобой.

Не жди, не жди,
К дубу приходи,
Где мертвец кричал:
— Милая, беги!

Странный наш мир, и нам так странно здесь порой.
Под дубом в полночь встретимся с тобой.

Не жди, не жди,
Приходи скорей.
К дубу, где мертвец 
Звал на бунт людей.

Странный наш мир, и нам так странно здесь порой.
Под дубом в полночь встретимся с тобой.

Are you, are you [bad word] to the tree
They [bad word] up a man
They say who murdered three
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met at midnight
In the hanging tree

Are you, are you [bad word] to the tree
Where dead man called out
For his love to flee
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met at midnight
In the hanging tree

Are you, are you [bad word] to the tree
Where I told you [bad word] 
So we'd both be free
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met at midnight
In the hanging tree

Are you, are you [bad word] to the tree
Wear a necklace of hope
Side by side with me
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met at midnight
In the hanging tree

Are you, are you [bad word] to the tree
Where I told you [bad word] 
So we'd both be free
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met at midnight
In the hanging tree

Are you, are you [bad word] to the tree
Where they [bad word] up a man
They say who murdered three
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met at midnight
In the hanging tree

Are you, are you [bad word] to the tree
Where dead man called out
For his love to flee
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met at midnight
In the hanging tree
