Poor Ellen Smith - Neko Case[00:00:00]

Poor Ellen Smith how was she found[00:00:09]

Shot through the heart lying cold on the ground[00:00:13]

Her body was mangled and all cast around[00:00:18]

And blood marks the spot where poor Ellen was found[00:00:22]

They picked up her body and carried it away[00:00:29]

Now she's a-sleepin' in some lonesome ol' grave[00:00:33]

Who had the heart and who had the brain[00:00:38]

To shoot my little darling on this cold lonesome plain[00:00:41]

They picked up their rifles and hunted us down[00:00:57]

They found us a loafin' all around town[00:01:00]

The jury may convict me and God knows they can[00:01:05]

But I know I died as an innocent man[00:01:09]

I've been in this prison for seven long years[00:01:16]

Each night I see Ellen through my bitter tears[00:01:20]

I got a letter yesterday I read it today[00:01:25]

The flowers on her grave have all faded away[00:01:29]

The warden has told me that soon I'll be free[00:01:35]

To go to her grave 'neath that old holler tree[00:01:39]

I'm free from the walls of this prison at last[00:01:54]

But I'll never be free from my sins of the past[00:01:58]

Poor Ellen Smith how was she found[00:02:03]

Shot through the heart lying cold on the ground[00:02:07]
