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[00:00:29]

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[00:00:55]

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[00:01:09]

The Lily of the west[00:01:13]

We down in yonder shady grove[00:01:28]

A man of high degree[00:01:32]

Conversing with my Flora there[00:01:36]

It seemed so strange to me[00:01:39]

And the answer that she gave to him[00:01:42]

It sure did me oppress[00:01:46]

I was betrayed by Flora[00:01:50]

The Lily of the west[00:01:54]

I stepped up to my rival[00:02:01]

My dagger in my hand[00:02:05]

I seized him by the collar and[00:02:08]

I boldly made him stand[00:02:12]

Being mad to desperation[00:02:15]

I pierced him in the breast[00:02:19]

Then go my lovely Flora[00:02:22]

The Lily of the west[00:02:26]

I had to stand my trial[00:02:34]

I had to make my plea[00:02:38]

They placed me in the criminal box[00:02:41]

And then commenced on me[00:02:44]

Although she swore my life away[00:02:47]

Deprived me of my rest[00:02:52]

I still love my faithless Flora[00:02:55]

The Lily of the west[00:02:59]
