Despite having heard Dave dozens and dozens of times over the last 40 years or so and being fairly familiar with his singing style, you could be right about is twine being has twined. I might have been mislead by the sleeve insert which has a transcription which does have is 'twine and is correct in all other respects bar introductory (and often very elided) And, So, For etc. (My transcription above was from listening to record not the insert). The first word could easily be has not is, the second could be twined, but the final d never sounds in any verse. I'll have another listen later in the day when my ears have woken up properly.

One other possible change is Gallow to Gallowa' (which I think might be a more usual contraction) - I couldn't decide when I made the transcription it there was a final a there or not and in the end went with the word as on the insert.
