When I was a young girl I used to seek pleasure
When I was a young girl I used to drink ale
Right out of the ale house and into the jail house
Right out of the bar room and down to my grave
(right down to my grave)
Come mama come papa sit you beside me
Come mama come papa pity my case
Cause my head it is aching my heart it is breaking
My body salvaided, oh, I'm bound to die
Go send for the preacher to come and pray for me
Go send for the doctor to heal up my wounds
Cause my head it is aching my heart it is breaking
My body salvaided and hell is my home
I want three young ladies to bear up my coffin
I want three young ladies to take me along
You know that I want them to carry, oh a bunch of wild roses
To lay on my body as I pass along
One morning, one morning, one morning in May
One morning, one morning in May
I spy this young lady all clad in white linnen
All clad in white linnen cold as a clay
When I was a young girl I used to seek pleasure
When I was a young girl I used to drink ale
Right out of the ale house, mhmm into the jail house
Right out of the bar room
and right down
ooh, right down
oh right dooOooOooOwn to my-y-y-y-y GRAAAAAAAAAAAAVE !
