Willie Moore - Erik Darling/Ellen Kossoy

Willie Moore was a king

His age twenty one

He courted a damsel fair;

Her eyes was as bright as

The stars in the night

And wavy black was her hair

He courted her both night and day

To marry they do agree;

But when he came to get her parents consent

They said it could never be

She threw herself in Willie Moore's arms

As of time had done before;

But little did he think when they parted that night

Sweet Anna he would see no more

It was about the tenth of May

The time I remember well;

That very same night her body disappeared

In a way that no tongue could tell

Sweet Annie was loved both far and near

She had friends of all around;

And in a little brook before the cottage door

The body of sweet Anna was found

She was taken by her weeping friends

And carried to her parent's room

And there she was dressed in a gown of snowy white

And laid her in a lonely tomb

Her parents now are left all alone

One mourns while the other weeps;

And in a little brook besaid the cottage door

The body of sweet Anna still sleeps
