For many of these, you need to provide more context since they could have several meanings.
**Your leg's sleeping.
This is when you lose feeling in your leg and it feels numb and/or tingly.
For example, if you sit on your leg for a long time, then try to move it.
** You laid on the damn thing.
Need more context here.
** Almost pinned a note on you.
It could mean almost blamed someone for something. Need more context.
** I hooked you to those two men
Could mean "I introduced you to those men
to hook up with someone also means to meet someone
** in more ways than you know.
clear from the expression?
** standing with your head in the noose and your feet in Crisco.
you'll be hanged for a serious crime
**Oh, I expect you'll let yourself... go to Greenhaven for murder
let yourself be sent to prison for murder
** You got some heavy lifting here first. (got some heavy lifting )
some serious or difficult work to do
** Burn sth like a cane field in a high wind.
a sugar cane field in high wind will burn ferociously and quickly

Sometimes expressions cannot be explained without the context being known. I can try to answer some of the expression:
The expression are :
**Your leg's sleeping. It means your leg is asleep. The circulation in the leg is bad and it is numb...
** You laid on the damn thing. I don't know.
** Almost pinned a note on you. This could mean that the person avoided death. When one dies, a note is put on a person's body, labeling them while they are not buried.
** I hooked you to those two men I don' know.
** in more ways than you know.
** standing with your head in the noose and your feet in Crisco. This is a reference to death. The person was close to death....A noose is a rope that goes around one's neck...and is tied to a tree limb (possibly) so if your feet are in Crisco (oil which is slippery), you could slip and break your neck...and die.
**Oh, I expect you'll let yourself... go to Greenhaven for murder I don't know...
** You got some heavy lifting here first. (got some heavy lifting ) They have a lot of work to do to get started/going.
** Burn sth like a cane field in a high wind. I have no idea what this means. But if there is a fire and there is a lot of wind, the fire will burn quickly. It burns fast.
