Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds - The Willow Garden Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Down in the willow garden, me and my love did meet
  • And as we sat a-courting, my love fell off to sleep
  • I had a bottle of burgundy wine; my love, she did not know
  • And so I poisoned that dear little girl along the banks below
  • Along the banks below
  • I drew my saber through her; it was a bloody night
  • I threw her in the river, which was a dreadful sight
  • My father often told me that money would set me free
  • And so I murdered that dear little girl whose name was rose connelly
  • Whose name was rose connelly
  • My father sits at his cabin door wiping his tear-dimmed eyes
  • His only son soon should walk to yonder scaffold high
  • My race is run beneath the sun; the scaffold now waits for me
  • For I did murder that dear little girl whose name was rose connelly
  • Whose name was rose connelly
  • Whose name was rose connelly
