The Lady Dressed In Green lyrics

There was a lady dressed in green Fare a lair a lido There was a lady dressed in green Down by the greenwood side She had a baby in her arms Fare a lair a lido She had a baby in her arms Down by the greenwood side She had a penknife long and sharp Fare a lair a lido She had a penknife long and sharp Down by the greenwood side She stuck it in the baby's heart Fare a lair a lido She stuck it in the baby's heart Down by the greenwood side She went to the well to wash it off Fare a lair a lido She went to the well to wash it off Down by the greenwood side The more she washed, the more it bled Fare a lair a lido The more she washed, the more it bled Down by the greenwood side There came a knocking on the door Fare a lair a lido There came a knocking on the door Down by the greenwood side There came three bobbies rushing in Fare a lair a lido There came three bobbies rushing in Down by the greenwood side They asked her what she did last night Fare a lair a lido They asked her what she did last night Down by the greenwood side She said I killed my only son Fare a lair a lido She said I killed my only son Down by the greenwood side
