[00:13.64]I'll tell you all a story about Ommie Wise
[00:19.55]How she was deluded by John Lewis's lies
[00:36.36]He told her to meet him at Adams's spring
[00:41.67]He'd bring her some money and some other fine things
[00:47.48]He brought her no money nor no other fine things
[00:53.11]But "Get up behind me, Ommie, to Squire Elletts we'll go"
[01:09.60]She got up behind him, "So caref'llie we'll go"
[01:14.92]They rode 'til they came where deep waters did flow
[01:20.76]John Lewis, he concluded to tell her his mind
[01:26.25]John Lewis, he concluded to leave her behind
[01:43.03]She threw her arms around him, "John, spare me my life
[01:48.80]And I'll go distracted and never be your wife"
[02:04.86]He threw her arms from 'round him, and into the water she plunged.
[02:10.21]John Lewis, he turned 'round and rode back to Adams's Hall
[02:15.74]He went inquiring for Ommie but, "Ommie, she is not here
[02:21.01]She's gone to some neighbor's house and won't be gone very long"
[02:36.52]John Lewis was took a prisoner and locked up in the jail
[02:41.93]Was locked up in the jail around, was there to remain a while
[02:47.14]John Lewis, he stayed there for six months or maybe more
[02:52.48]Until he broke jail; into the army he did go
