lyrics

down by the willow garden
where me and my true did meet
we sat there a-courtin'
my true love fell off to sleep

i had a bottle of that burglar wine
in which i did not know
that that there'd i'd murder my own true love
down on the banks so cold

as i drew a dagger to her
which was a bloody knife
down by the willow garden
i took that poor girl's life

my father always told me
that money would set me free
if i would murder that pretty little girl
her name, Rose Anna Lee

and now he's standing in his cabin door
with teardrops in his eyes
looking on his only son
upon the scaffold high

my work is done beneath the sun
and hell is waiting for me
because i murdered that pretty little girl
her name, Rose Anna Lee
