Down by the greenwoodside







A haunting tune, but I like the video




She was walking her fathers walk
Hi-ho
She was walking her fathers walk
She saw two pretty babes playing the ball
Lay me down me di-dilly dilly downward
Down by the Greenwoodside oh
She said "Pretty babes if you's was mine"
Hi-ho
She said, "Pretty babes if you's was mine"
"I'd dress you in such silk and fine"
Lay me down me di-dilly dilly downward
Down by the Greenwoodside oh
They said, "Dear mother when we was yours"
Hi-ho
You took a pen knife long and sharp
And pierced those pretty babes through the heart
Lay me down me di-dilly dilly downward
Down by the Greenwoodside oh
She washed the pen knife in the stream
Hi-ho
She washed the pen knife in the stream
The more she washed it, the blood stained in
Lay me down me di-dilly dilly downward
Down by the Greenwoodside oh
She leant her back up against a nook
Hi-ho
She leant her back up against a nook
First it bent and then it broke
Lay me down me di-dilly dilly downward
Down by the Greenwoodside oh
Lay me down me di-dilly dilly downward
Down by the Greenwoodside oh
