Knoxville Girl (LP版) - The Lemonheads[00:00:00]
I met a little girl in Knoxville[00:00:11]
A town we all know well[00:00:14]
And every Sunday evening[00:00:18]
Out in her home I'd dwell[00:00:22]
We went to take an evening walk[00:00:26]
About a mile from town[00:00:29]
I picked a stick up off the ground[00:00:33]
And I beat that fair girl down[00:00:37]
She fell down on her bended knee[00:00:47]
For mercy she did cry[00:00:50]
Oh Willy dear don't kill me here[00:00:54]
I'm unprepared to die[00:00:58]
She never spoke another word[00:01:02]
I only beat her more[00:01:06]
Until the ground around us[00:01:09]
With all her blood did pour[00:01:13]
I took her by her golden curls[00:01:23]
And drug her round and round[00:01:26]
Throwing ed her into the river[00:01:31]
That flows through Knoxville town[00:01:34]
Go down go down you Knoxville girl[00:01:38]
With dark and rolling eye[00:01:41]
Go down go down you Knoxville girl[00:01:45]
You can never be my bride[00:01:49]
I headed back to Knoxville[00:01:58]
Got there about midnight[00:02:02]
My mother she was worried[00:02:06]
And woke up in a fright[00:02:10]
Saying dear son what have you done[00:02:14]
To bloody your clothes so[00:02:17]
I told my anxious mother[00:02:21]
I was bleeding out my nose[00:02:25]
I called for me a candle[00:02:35]
To light myself to bed[00:02:39]
I called for me a handkerchief[00:02:42]
To bind my aching head[00:02:46]
Rolled and tumbled the whole night through[00:02:50]
As troubles was for me[00:02:54]
Like flames of hell around my bed[00:02:58]
And in my eyes could see[00:03:02]
They carried me down to Knoxville[00:03:11]
And put me in a cell[00:03:15]
My friends all tried to get me out[00:03:19]
But none could go my bail[00:03:23]
I'm here to waste my life away down in this[00:03:26]
Dirty old jail[00:03:31]
Because I murdered that Knoxville girl[00:03:34]
The girl I loved so well[00:03:38]
