[Rufus Wainwright & Brandi Carlile]
Down in the willow garden
Where me and my love did meet
As we sat a courtin'
My love fell off to sleep
[Rufus Wainwright & Brandi Carlile]
I had a bottle of Burgundy wine
My love, she did not know
So, I poisoned that dear little girl
On the banks below
[Rufus Wainwright & Brandi Carlile]
I drew a saber through her
It was a bloody knife
I threw her in the river
Which was a dreadful sign
[Rufus Wainwright & Brandi Carlile]
My father often told me
That money would set me free
If I would murder that dear little girl
Whose name was Rose Connolly
[Rufus Wainwright & Brandi Carlile]
My father sits at his cabin door
Wiping his tear-dimmed eyes
For his only son soon shall walk
To yonder scaffold high
[Rufus Wainwright & Brandi Carlile]
My race is run, beneath the sun
The scaffold now waits for me
For I did murder that dear little girl
Whose name was Rose Connolly
