Brewster: Ballads and Songs of Indiana 201
4. Last night my lover promised me
He'd take me across the deep blue sea; But now he's gone and left me alone, Poor orphan girl to weep and mourn.
5. Go dig my grave both wide and deep;
Place a marble slab at my head and feet. Place o'er my eyebrow a snow-white dove To prove to the world that I died for love. |
