Вступление

D                      D7          G                D
I met a little girl in Knoxville a town we all know well
                             E             A
And every Sunday evening out in her home I dwelled
  D                       D7     G                D
I took her for an evening walk a bout a mile from town
                                       A                      D
I picked a stick up off the ground and knocked that fair girl down

                            D7        G             D
She fell down on her bended knees for mercy she did cry
                                      E             A
"Oh Willy dear don?t kill me here I?m unprepared to die"
    D                   D7      G             D
She never spoke another word, I only beat her more
                                 A                D
Until the ground around her with it her blood did flow

                         D7        G                   D
I took her by her golden curls and swung her round and round
                              E                       A
I threw her in the river that flows through Knoxville town
   D                  D7                      G               D
Go there go there you Knoxville girl with the dark and roving eyes
                                             A           D
Go there go there you Knoxville girl you can never be my bride

                  D7            G               D
I started back to Knoxville got there about mid night
                               E            A
My mother dear was worried and woke up in a fright
    D                D7               G                  D
She said oh son what have you done to bloody you clothes so
                                  A              D
I told my ancient mother I?d been bleeding at my nose

                  D7        G               D
I called for me a candle to light myself to bed
                                 E              A
I called for me a hankerchief to bind my aching head
  D                      D7                         G                   D
I rolled and tumbled the whole night through, not a wink that night did sleep
                                             A                D
While the flames of hell around my bed with- in my eyes could see

                     D7             G                D
They took me down to Knoxville they locked me in the cell
                                       E                A
My friends all tried to get me out but none could go my bail
   D                  D7             G                 D
So now I?m wasting my life away down in this dirty old jail
                                           A               D
Because I murdered that Knoxville girl the girl I loved so well
