Down In The Willow |
| Down in the willow garden where me and my love did meet |
| There we sat a-courting my love fell off to sleep |
| I had a bottle of burgundy wine which my true love did not know |
| And there I poisoned that dear little girl down by the banks below |
| I drew my saber through her which was a bloody knife |
| I threw her in the river which was an awful sight |
| My father often told me that money would set me free |
| If I would murder that dear little miss whose name was Rose Connelly |
| Now he sits by his old cabin door a wiping his tear-brimmed eyes |
| Mourning for his only son out on the scaffold high |
| My race is run beneath the sun the devil is waiting for me |
| For I did murder that dear little girl whose name was Rose Connelly |
