I'll tell you all a story about Ommie Wise[00:00:13]
How she was deluded by John Lewis's lies[00:00:19]
He told her to meet him at Adams's spring[00:00:36]
He'd bring her some money and some other fine things[00:00:41]
He brought her no money nor no other fine things[00:00:47]
But get up behind me Ommie to squire elletts we'll go[00:00:52]
She got up behind him so careful lie we'll go[00:01:09]
They rode till they came where deep waters did flow[00:01:14]
John Lewis he concluded to tell her his mind[00:01:20]
John Lewis he concluded to leave her behind[00:01:26]
She threw her arms around him John spare me my life[00:01:42]
And I'll go distracted and never be your wife[00:01:48]
He threw her arms from 'round him and into the water she plunged[00:02:04]
John lewis he turned 'round and rode back to Adams's hall[00:02:09]
He went inquiring for Ommie but Ommie she is not here[00:02:15]
She's gone to some neighbor's house and won't be gone very long[00:02:20]
John Lewis was took a prisoner and locked up in the jail[00:02:36]
Was locked up in the jail around was there to remain a while[00:02:41]
John Lewis he stayed there for six months or maybe more[00:02:46]
Until he broke jail into the army he did go[00:02:51]
