Down in the Willow Garden

Down in the Willow Garden - The Everly Brothers (艾佛利兄弟)

Down In the willow garden

Where me and my love did meet

As we sat a-courtin'

My love fell off to sleep

I had a bottle of burgundy wine

My love she did not know

So I poisoned that dear little girl

On the banks below

I drew a saber through her

It was a bloody knife

I threw her In the river

Which was a dreadful sign

My father often told me

That money would set me free

If I would murder that dear little girl

Whose name was rose Connolly

My father sits at his cabin door

Wiping his tear-dimmed eyes

For his only son soon shall walk

To yonder scaffold high

My race Is run beneath the sun

The scaffold now waits for me

For I did murder that dear little girl

Whose name was rose Connolly
