Knoxville Girl - Br5-49[00:00:01]
I met a little girl in knoxville[00:00:09]
A town we all know well[00:00:13]
And every sunday evening[00:00:17]
In her home I'd dwell[00:00:22]
We went to take an evening walk[00:00:27]
About a mile from town[00:00:31]
I picked a stick up off the ground[00:00:36]
And I knocked that fair girl down[00:00:40]
She fell down on her bended knees[00:00:47]
For mercy she did cry[00:00:52]
Oh willy dear don't kill me yet[00:00:56]
I'm unprepared to die[00:01:01]
She never spoke another word[00:01:05]
I only beat her more[00:01:10]
Until the ground around me[00:01:14]
With her blood did flow[00:01:19]
I took her by her golden curls[00:02:04]
And I dragged her 'round and 'round[00:02:08]
Throwing her into the river[00:02:14]
That flows from knoxville town[00:02:18]
Go there go there you knoxville girl[00:02:23]
With your dark and roving eyes[00:02:27]
Go there go there you knoxville girl[00:02:32]
You can never be my bride[00:02:36]
I rolled and tumbled the whole night through[00:02:44]
My dreams were livin hell[00:02:48]
And then they came from knoxville to carry me to jail[00:02:53]
I'm here to waste my life away[00:03:02]
Down in this dirty old jail[00:03:07]
Because I murdered that knoxville girl[00:03:12]
The girl I loved so well[00:03:16]
