1
Down in the willow garden, me and my love did meet
2
And as we sat courting, my love fell off to sleep
3
I had a bottle of burgundy wine, my love, she did not know
4
So I poisoned that dear little girl along the banks below
5
Along the banks below
6
I drew my saber through her, it was a bloody night
7
I threw her in the river, which was a dreadful sight
8
My father often told me that money would set me free
9
So I murdered that dear little girl whose name was Rose Connelly
10
Whose name was Rose Connelly
11
My father sits at his cabin door, wiping his tear-dimmed eyes
12
His only son soon should walk to yonder scaffold high
13
My race is run beneath the sun, scaffold now waits for me
14
For I did murder that dear little girl, whose name was Rose Connelly
15
Whose name was Rose Connelly, whose name was Rose Connelly
