《Knoxville Girl(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] Knoxville Girl (LP版) - The Lemonheads

[00:00:11] I met a little girl in Knoxville

[00:00:14] A town we all know well

[00:00:18] And every Sunday evening

[00:00:22] Out in her home I'd dwell

[00:00:26] 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 beat that fair girl down

[00:00:47] She fell down on her bended knee

[00:00:50] For mercy she did cry

[00:00:54] Oh Willy dear don't kill me here

[00:00:58] I'm unprepared to die

[00:01:02] She never spoke another word

[00:01:06] I only beat her more

[00:01:09] Until the ground around us

[00:01:13] With all her blood did pour

[00:01:23] I took her by her golden curls

[00:01:26] And drug her round and round

[00:01:31] Throwing ed her into the river

[00:01:34] That flows through Knoxville town

[00:01:38] Go down go down you Knoxville girl

[00:01:41] With dark and rolling eye

[00:01:45] Go down go down you Knoxville girl

[00:01:49] You can never be my bride

[00:01:58] I headed back to Knoxville

[00:02:02] Got there about midnight

[00:02:06] My mother she was worried

[00:02:10] And woke up in a fright

[00:02:14] Saying dear son what have you done

[00:02:17] To bloody your clothes so

[00:02:21] I told my anxious mother

[00:02:25] I was bleeding out my nose

[00:02:35] I called for me a candle

[00:02:39] To light myself to bed

[00:02:42] I called for me a handkerchief

[00:02:46] To bind my aching head

[00:02:50] Rolled and tumbled the whole night through

[00:02:54] As troubles was for me

[00:02:58] Like flames of hell around my bed

[00:03:02] And in my eyes could see

[00:03:11] They carried me down to Knoxville

[00:03:15] And put me in a cell

[00:03:19] My friends all tried to get me out

[00:03:23] But none could go my bail

[00:03:26] I'm here to waste my life away down in this

[00:03:31] Dirty old jail

[00:03:34] Because I murdered that Knoxville girl

[00:03:38] The girl I loved so well
