[Intro]



            
Down in the wi

where me and m

           
y love did mee

As we sat a-co

  
urtin',
            
my love fell o

      
ff to sleep

           
I had a bottle

            
 of burgundy w


ine,

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,

My father sits

             
 at his cabin 


door,
             
wiping his tea

         
r-dimmed eyes
            
For his only s

             
on soon shall

to yonder scaf

     
fold high

           
My race is run

             
, beneath the 


sun,
             
the scaffold n

             
ow waits for m
