Charlie Feathers - Knoxville Girl текст песни

Текст песни Knoxville Girl - Charlie Feathers



Well, I met a liitle girl in Knoxville, a town we all know well
And every Sunday evening, out in the town, we d'well
Oh We went out on an evening walk, just about a mile from town
Well, I picked a stick up off the ground and knocked that fair girl down
She fell down on her bended knees, for mercy she did cry
Said "Oh Willy dear, don't you kill me here, I'm unprepared to die"
She never spoke another word, you know, I only beat her more
Until the ground around me, within her blood did flow
I took her by her golden curls, I dragged her round and around
Throwing her into the river, well, its close to Knoxville town
Go down, go down, you pretty little girl with dark and rolling eyes
Go down, go down, you Knoxville girl, you'll never be my wife
Well, I started back to Knoxville, I got there about midnight
My momma, she was worried and, you know, she woke up in a fright
Saying "son oh son, what have you done to bloody your clothes so?"
Well, I told my anxious mother, I've been bleeding at the nose
Later!!
Well, I called for me a candle to light myself to bed
Then I called for me a handkerchief to bind my aching head
Lord I rolled and tumbled all night through, as troubles was for me
There stood the devil at the foot of my bed, pointing his finger at me
Im scared!!
You know, they tucked me down to Knoxville and locked me in a cell
Well, My friends all tried to get me out but none could go my bail
I'm here to waste my life away down in this dirty old jail
Because I killed that Knoxville girl, the girl I loved so well
Why did you do it for boy!
Come save me now!
