Down In The Willow Garden

歌詞

Down in the willow garden Where me and my love did meet There we sat a courting My love dropped off to sleep. I had a bottle of burgundy wine My true love she did not know It was there I poisoned that dear little girl Down on the banks below. I drew a saber through her Which was a bloody knife I threw her in the river Which was an aweful sight. My father often told me That money would set me free If I would murder that dear little girl Who's name was Rose Connely. Now he sits in his cabin door A wiping his tear dimmed eye A'lookin at his own dear son Upon the scaffold high. My race is run beneath the sun The devil is waiting for me For I did murder that dear little girl Who's name was Rose Connely...
