[Intro]
Down in the wi
llow garden,
where me and m
y love did mee
t
As we sat a-co
urtin',
my love fell o
ff to sleep
I had a bottle
of burgundy w
ine,
my love she di
d not know
So I poisoned
that dear litt
le girl,
along the bank
s below
I drew a sabre
through her,
it was a blood
y knife
I threw her in
the river,
which was a dr
eadful sight
My father ofte
n told me,
that money wou
ld set me free
If I would mur
der that dear
little girl,
whose name was
Rose Connolly
My father sits
at his cabin
door,
wiping his tea
r-dimmed eyes
For his only s
on soon shall
walk,
to yonder scaf
fold high
My race is run
, beneath the
sun,
the scaffold n
ow waits for m
e
For I did murd
er that dear l
ittle girl,
whose name was
Rose Connelly
