1
Willie Moore was a young man, his age 21
2
And he courted a damsel fair
3
Her eyes were as white as a diamond after night
4
And a wavy jet black wore her hair
5
He courted her night and day
6
Until marriage they did agree
7
But when he came to get her parents consent
8
They said it could never be
9
She threw herself in Willie Moore's arms
10
As often she'd done before
11
And little did he think when he left her that night
12
Sweet Annie he would see no more
13
It was about the 10th of May
14
A time I remember it well
15
That very same night little Annie disappeared
16
In a way no tongue could tell
17
Sweet Annie was loved both far and near
18
She had friends almost all around
19
And near a little brook not far from her home
20
The body of sweet Annie were found
21
Her parents now are left alone
22
One mourns while the other' weeps
23
And near a grassy mound outside the cottage door
24
The body of sweet Annie sleeps
25
Willie Moore scarcely spoke to his friends they say
26
From the moment they both did part
27
And his last day was spent near his true lover's grave
28
Where he died of a broken heart
