Two Sisters (两姐妹) - Andrew Bird (Andrew Wegman Bird)[00:00:00]

Two young sisters are walking alone[00:00:37]

By the pale muddy waters[00:00:42]

Two young sisters are walking alone[00:00:46]

By the pale muddy waters of Onion town[00:00:51]

When one of them pushed the younger in[00:00:57]

Into the cold rain waters[00:01:02]

Pushed her sister and watched her drown[00:01:06]

In the cold muddy froth on the river[00:01:11]

And she floated up and she floated down[00:01:29]

To pale she was as the water[00:01:34]

Floated down till she washed down shore[00:01:39]

On the pale muddy banks of Onion town[00:01:44]

With wolves by night and the sun by day[00:01:49]

Nothing was left but bones and hair[00:01:55]

Bones and hair which are both more fair[00:02:00]

Than the pale muddy banks of the river[00:02:04]

Luke his son was deaf in rain[00:02:26]

Carried her home her tiny frame[00:02:31]

Father father I hear her cry[00:02:38]

"how can that be " he said "bones don't cry" he said[00:02:43]

Besides you're deaf[00:02:50]

But he thought there must be something to these bones[00:02:53]

So he made a fiddle out of her breast bone[00:02:55]

Made some pegs out of her finger bone[00:03:03]

Made a bow out of her leg bone[00:03:08]

And from her yellow hair he strum[00:03:15]

The strings that would have her story sung[00:03:19]

And sometime later [00:03:23]

One old woman was walking alone[00:03:27]

By the pale muddy waters[00:03:32]

She heard the strings of the sweet fiddle cry[00:03:36]

"Cruel sister why have you drowned me "[00:03:41]

Upon her rock the deaf boy played[00:03:46]

Oh the bows of Onion[00:03:51]

And into the water the cruel sister ran[00:03:55]

But she sank just like any old stone[00:04:00]
