My heart is sad, oh Iâ²m so lonely, thinking of the one I love
Never in my life Iâ²ll meet her, unless in Heaven high above
She told me that she dearly loved me, neâ²er sheâ²d been untrue to me
Until the day I saw her walking, another man - another life, said she
[chorus:]
Bury me in young green meadow, lay the sod oâ²er me
Under the shade of a wheeping willow-tree
You rambling boys of pleasure, always on the run
Now Iâ²m dead and gone
I spied them standing near the river, he kissed her in the broad day-light
I shot the lady and her lover, and laid their corpses side by side
[chorus]
The coppers brought me up to prison, the judge said: Young
man,
you
did
wrong!
The hangman led me to the gallows, he pulled the rope and I got hung
[chorus]
