Naomi Wise - Bob Dylan [00:00:00]
well she met him as she promised[00:00:16]
up at Adam's this spring[00:00:21]
expecting some money[00:00:24]
or some other fine thing[00:00:28]
no money, no money[00:00:32]
to flatter the case[00:00:36]
"We'll have to get married[00:00:40]
so there'll be no disgrace."[00:00:43]
"So jump you up Omie[00:00:47]
and away we will ride[00:00:50]
to yonder fair country[00:00:54]
where the cool waters glide."[00:00:58]
she jumped up behind him[00:01:02]
and away they did ride[00:01:05]
to yonder fair country[00:01:09]
where the deep waters glide[00:01:12]
"Now jump you down Omie[00:01:16]
and i'll tell you my mind[00:01:20]
my mind is to drown you[00:01:24]
and to leave you behind."[00:01:27]
she begged and she pleaded[00:01:31]
"Oh, don't take my life[00:01:35]
and i will deny you[00:01:39]
and i'll never be your wife."[00:01:42]
there she kicked and he cuffed her[00:01:46]
to the worst understand[00:01:50]
and he threw her in deep water[00:01:54]
that flows through the land[00:01:58]
they found her poor body[00:02:02]
the following day[00:02:05]
the preacher and the reverend[00:02:09]
Lord, they all begun to pray[00:02:12]
and up spoke her mother[00:02:16]
with a voice so a-sting[00:02:20]
"Nobody but John Lewis[00:02:24]
could've done such a thing."[00:02:27]
they traced him up the waters[00:02:31]
to Dutch Charlie's Bend[00:02:35]
in jail[00:02:38]
for killin' a man[00:02:41]
"Go hang him, go hang him."[00:02:45]
was that mother's command[00:02:48]
"And throw him in deep waters[00:02:52]
that flows through the land."[00:02:56]
