Listen up, buttercup. This joke is about a dude about to be hanged. The executioner, in a show of good faith, asks him for his last words. The dude says it's hard to think straight when you're about to kick the bucket. Get it? Gallows humor, because he's literally on the gallows, which is where people get hanged. You probably think a gallows is some kind of bird house.
