The Lily of the West - Joan Baez (琼·贝兹)[00:00:00]

When first I came to Louisville[00:00:15]

Some pleasure there to find[00:00:19]

A damsel there from Lexington[00:00:23]

Was pleasing to my mind[00:00:26]

Her rosy cheeks her ruby lips[00:00:30]

Like arrows pierced my breast[00:00:33]

And the name she bore was Flora[00:00:36]

The Lily Of The West[00:00:40]

I courted lovely Flora[00:00:48]

Some pleasure there to find[00:00:52]

But she turned unto another man[00:00:56]

Which sore distressed my mind[00:00:59]

She robbed me of my liberty[00:01:02]

Deprived me of my rest[00:01:06]

Then go my lovely Flora[00:01:10]

'The Lily Of The West[00:01:14]

We down in yonder shady grove[00:01:29]

A man of high degree[00:01:33]

Conversing with my Flora there[00:01:37]

It seemed so strange to me[00:01:40]

And the answer that she gave to him[00:01:43]

It sure did me oppress[00:01:47]

I was betrayed by Flora[00:01:51]

The Lily Of The West[00:01:55]

I stepped up to my rival[00:02:02]

My dagger in my hand[00:02:06]

I seized him by the collar[00:02:10]

And I boldly made him stand[00:02:13]

Being mad to desperation[00:02:16]

I pierced him in the breast[00:02:20]

Then go my lovely Flora[00:02:23]

The Lily Of The West[00:02:28]

I had to stand my trial[00:02:36]

I had to make my plea[00:02:39]

They placed me in the criminal box[00:02:42]

And then commenced on me[00:02:46]

Although she swore my life away[00:02:49]

Deprived me of my rest[00:02:53]

I still love my faithless Flora[00:02:56]

The Lily Of The West[00:03:00]
