This harmonica holder isn't holding
too good together.
Seems like it's going to
strangle me here.
It's just a hanger,
a coat hanger.
She promised to meet him at
Adams'
Spring,
Expecting some money for
some other fine thing.
No money, no money to
flatter the case
We'll have to get married,
so there'll be no disgrace
So jump you up on me,
and away we will ride
To yonder fair country, and I'll make you
my bride
She jumped up behind him,
and away they did
go to yonder far country where the deep waters
flow I jump you down old me and I tell you
my mind my mind is to drown you and to leave
you behind oh no no please don't
take my life oh I will deny you
and I'll not be your wife
But it kicked any cup turd to
the worst understand
And it threw her in deep water,
it flows through the land
They found her poor body the following day
Run up on the river down the banks full of
clay
And up spoke her mother
with a voice such
thing no one but
John
Lewis could have done such a
thing they traced him up the
river to
Dutch
Charlie's band or they found
him in jail for killing a man
Go hang him, go hang him,
was a mother's command
Throw him in deep wa ter,
let flow through the land
Go hang him, go hang him,
was a judge's command
From the deep wa ter that flows
through the land.
