the phrase, from history, is:
"....hung, with a new rope"
The quote, a little extended, reads, "I want to be hung with a new rope.
I was brung up respectably, and I want to die that way." Which suggests
the speaker quoted is no expert on grammar.
Over here, saying a man is hung means something quite different to
saying he's been put to death by hanging - hanged, that is.
