Knoxville Girl (诺克斯维尔女孩儿) - Shindig Society[00:00:00]
I met a little girl in Knoxville[00:00:08]
A town we all know well[00:00:13]
And every sunday evening[00:00:17]
In her home I'd dwell[00:00:21]
We went to take an evening walk[00:00:25]
About a mile from town[00:00:29]
I picked a stick up off the ground[00:00:33]
And I knocked that fair girl down[00:00:37]
She fell down on her bended knees[00:00:42]
For mercy she did cry[00:00:46]
"Oh Willy dear don't kill me yet[00:00:50]
I'm unprepared to die"[00:00:54]
She never spoke another word[00:00:59]
I only beat her more[00:01:03]
Until the ground around me[00:01:07]
With her blood did flow[00:01:11]
I took her by her golden curls[00:01:24]
And I dragged her 'round and 'round[00:01:28]
Throwing her into the river[00:01:33]
That flows from Knoxville town[00:01:36]
Go down go down you Knoxville girl[00:01:41]
With your dark and roving eyes[00:01:45]
Go down go down you Knoxville girl[00:01:49]
You can never be my bride[00:01:53]
They carried me down to Knoxville[00:01:58]
And put me in a cell[00:02:02]
My friends all tried to get me out[00:02:06]
But none could grow my bail[00:02:10]
I'm here to waste my life away[00:02:14]
Down in this dirty old jail[00:02:18]
Because I murdered that Knoxville girl[00:02:23]
The girl I loved so well[00:02:27]
