Omie Wise-Bert Jansch[00:00:00]

Oh listen to my story I'll tell you no lies[00:00:06]

How John Lewes did murder poor little Omie Wise [00:00:13]

He told to her meet him at Adam's Spring[00:00:22]

He promised her money and other fine things[00:00:28]

And fool like she met him at Adam's Spring[00:00:37]

No money did he bring her nor other fine things[00:00:44]

Go with me little Omie and away we will go[00:00:53]

We'll go and get married and nobody will know[00:01:00]

Well she climbed up behind him and away they did go[00:01:08]

But down to the river where deep waters flow [00:01:15]

“ John Lewes John Lewes will you tell to me your mind[00:01:33]

Do you intend to marry me or leave me behind ”[00:01:40]

“ Little Omie little Omie I'll tell to you my mind[00:01:46]

My mind is to drown you and leave you behind ”[00:01:54]

“ Have mercy on my baby and spare me my life[00:02:00]

I'll go home as a beggar and never be your wife”[00:02:09]

He hugged her and kissed her and turned her around[00:02:34]

And pushed her in deep water where he knew that she would drown [00:02:41]

Then he got up on his pony and away he did ride[00:02:49]

As the screams of little Omie went down by his side[00:02:56]

‘ Twas on a Thursday morning the rain was a-pouring down[00:03:05]

When the people searched for Omie but she could not be found [00:03:12]

Two boys went a-fishing one fine sunny day[00:03:31]

And saw little Omie's body go floating away [00:03:38]

They threw their nets around her and drew her to the bank[00:03:50]

Her clothes all wet and muddy they laid her on a plank [00:03:56]

Then sent for John Lewes to come to that place[00:04:05]

And brought her out before him that he might see her face [00:04:12]

Well he made no confession but they carried him to jail[00:04:20]

No friends nor relations would come for his bail[00:04:27]
