To έχουν παίξει και οι Zeppelin. Ο Neil διασκευάζει Zep ουσιαστικά από ότι καταλαβαίνω γιατί χρησιμοποιεί τους στίχους που παραθέτω πιο κάτω. Διάβασα όμως ότι το original προέρχεται από το παραδοσιακό folk τραγούδι The Maid Freed from the Gallows και ηχογραφήθηκε πρώτη φορά από τον Leadbelly το 1939 ως Gallis Pole και με διαφορετικούς στίχους (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ye2N_2ce3QE)... Η ιστορία του τραγουδιού είναι καταπληκτική! Υπάρχει φινλανδική, γερμανική, λιθουανική κ σουηδική version οπότε δεν είναι σίγουρο ότι έχει αγγλικές / αμερικάνικες ρίζες... Όλα τα τραγούδια έχουν πάντως κοινό θέμα... τη συλλογή λύτρων για να γλυτώσει μία νεαρή κοπέλα την κρεμάλα...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Maid_Freed_from_the_Gallows
Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while, I Think I see my friends coming, Riding a many mile. Friends, you get some silver? Did you get a little gold? What did you bring me, my dear friends? Keep me from the Gallows Pole. What did you bring me to keep me from the Gallows Pole?
I couldn't get no silver, I couldn't get no gold, You know that we're too damn poor to keep you from the Gallows Pole. Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while, I think I see my brother coming, riding many a mile. Brother, you get me some silver? Did you get a little gold? What did you bring me, my brother, to keep me from the Gallows Pole?
Brother, I brought you some silver, yeah. I brought a little gold, I brought a little of everything To keep you from the Gallows Pole. Yes, I brought you to keep you from the Gallows Pole.
Hangman, hangman, turn your head awhile, I think I see my sister coming, riding many mile, mile, mile. Sister, I implore you, take him by the hand, Take him to some shady bower, save me from the wrath of this man, Please take him, save me from the wrath of this mad, man.
Hangman, hangman, upon your face a smile, Tell me that I'm free to ride, Ride for many mile, mile, mile.
Oh yes, you got a fine sister, She warmed my blood from cold, She warmed my blood to boiling hot to keep you from the Gallows Pole, Your brother brought me silver, Your sister warmed my soul, But now I laugh and pull so hard, see you swinging from the Gallows Pole
But now I laugh and pull so hard, see you swinging from the Gallows Pole Swingin' on the gallows pole!
Ah-ha-ha Swingin' Swingin' on the gallows pole! See-saw marjory daw See-saw knock at my door
