[00:00.92]Down in the willow garden
[00:08.18]Where me and my true love did meet,
[00:14.92]It was there we were courtin',
[00:22.88]My love fell off to sleep.
[00:30.34]I had a bottle of burgundy wine,
[00:37.91]My true love she did not know.
[00:44.90]It was there I murdered that dear little girl
[00:52.85]Down on the banks below.
[01:00.28]
[01:14.32]I drew my saber through her,
[01:21.52]It was a bloody knife,
[01:28.67]I threw her into the river,
[01:36.70]It was a horrible sight.
[01:43.48]My father often had told me
[01:50.98]That money would set me free
[01:57.95]If I would murder that poor little girl
[02:04.82]Whose name was Rose Connelly.
[02:13.63]
[02:43.20]Now he stands at his cabin door,
[02:51.38]Wiping his tears from his eyes,
[02:57.96]Gazing on his own dear son,
[03:04.78]Upon the scaffold high.
[03:11.57]My race is run beneath the sun,
[03:18.96]The Devil is waiting for me,
[03:24.94]For I did murder that dear little girl
[03:33.19]Whose name was Rose Connelly.
