《Knoxville Girl》歌词

[00:00:00] Knoxville Girl (诺克斯维尔女孩儿) - Shindig Society

[00:00:08] I met a little girl in Knoxville

[00:00:13] A town we all know well

[00:00:17] And every sunday evening

[00:00:21] In her home I'd dwell

[00:00:25] We went to take an evening walk

[00:00:29] About a mile from town

[00:00:33] I picked a stick up off the ground

[00:00:37] And I knocked that fair girl down

[00:00:42] She fell down on her bended knees

[00:00:46] For mercy she did cry

[00:00:50] "Oh Willy dear don't kill me yet

[00:00:54] I'm unprepared to die"

[00:00:59] She never spoke another word

[00:01:03] I only beat her more

[00:01:07] Until the ground around me

[00:01:11] With her blood did flow

[00:01:24] I took her by her golden curls

[00:01:28] And I dragged her 'round and 'round

[00:01:33] Throwing her into the river

[00:01:36] That flows from Knoxville town

[00:01:41] Go down go down you Knoxville girl

[00:01:45] With your dark and roving eyes

[00:01:49] Go down go down you Knoxville girl

[00:01:53] You can never be my bride

[00:01:58] They carried me down to Knoxville

[00:02:02] And put me in a cell

[00:02:06] My friends all tried to get me out

[00:02:10] But none could grow my bail

[00:02:14] I'm here to waste my life away

[00:02:18] Down in this dirty old jail

[00:02:23] Because I murdered that Knoxville girl

[00:02:27] The girl I loved so well
