Текст песни Willow Garden

Was in the willow garden Where I and my lover did stray Was there we sat a courtin' My lover did these words say Oh, Willy, my darlin', oh Willy, my love How can you take my life? How can you stab my fair young breast With your long daggery knife? I stabbed her with my dagger It was a bloody sight I throwed her in the river It was a dreadful night My father often had told me That money would set me free If I would murder that dear little girl Whose name was Rose Connelly My race is run beneath the Sun The scaffold is waiting for me 'Cause I did murder that dear little girl Whose name was Rose Connelly And now I sit in my old jail cell And out of my window can see The spot where I murdered that dear little girl Down under the willow tree Oh, Willy, my darlin', oh Willy my love How can you take my life? How can you stab my fair young breast With your long daggery knife? With your long daggery knife How can you take my life?
