I asked my Glove, to take a Dwalk
Take a walk, just a liGttle ways,
And as we walked, along we Ctalked
Of when would Gbe, D our wedding Gday.
Chorus
And only Gsay, that you'll be Dmine,
In no o thers arms entwiGned,
Down beside where the waters Cflow,
Down by the GbanksD of the OhiGo.
I asked her Gif she'd marry Dme,
And my wife forever Gbe,
She only turned her head aCway
And had no GotheDr words to sGay.
Chorus
Refrain
I plunged a Gknife into her Dbreast,
And told her she was going to Grest,
She cried 'Oh Willie, don't murder Cme,
I'm not GpreparedD for eternitGy.'
I took her Gby her golden Dcurls,
And drug her down to the riverGside,
And there I pushed her into Cdrown,
And I watched her Gas sDhe floated doGwn.
Chorus
Refrain
And going Ghome between twelve and Done,
And cried 'Oh Lord, What have I Gdone,
I've killed the only girl I Clove,
Because she GwouldD not marry Gme.
