Vandaveer - Omie Wise Lyrics

Font:

Align:

She went upstairs to make her bed

And not one word to her mother said

Her mother, she went up there, too

Saying, "Daughter, oh daughter, what's troubling you?"

"Oh mother, oh mother, I cannot tell

For the railroad boy that I love so well

He's courted me my life away

And now at home he will not stay

There is a tavern in London town

Where the railroad boy, he sits him down

He takes a strange girl on his knee

And he tells her things that he once told me"

Her father, he came in from work

Saying "Where's my daughter, she seems so hurt"

He went upstairs to give her hope

But he found her hanging for a rope

He took his knife and he cut her down

And on her bosom these words he found

"Oh, dig my grave both wide and deep

Place a marble slab at my head and feet

And on my coffin place a snow white dove

To show this world that I died for love".
