Willie Moore was a king, his age twenty-one, |
| [00:26:00] |
Courted a maiden fair; |
| [00:30:00] |
Her eyes were like two diamonds bright, |
| [00:33:30] |
Raven black was her hair, hmmm... |
| [00:43:00] |
He courted her both day and night, |
| [00:47:00] |
To marry him she did agree, |
| [00:51:00] |
But when they went to get her parents' consent, |
| [00:55:00] |
They said,"This could never be," hummm |
| [01:03:00] |
"I love Willie Moore,"sweet Annie replied, |
| [01:06:30] |
"Beeter than I love my life, |
| [01:10:00] |
And I would rather die than weep here and cry, |
| [01:15:00] |
Never to be his wife,hummm |
| [01:23:00] |
That very same night sweet Annie disappeared, |
| [01:26:50] |
They searched the country' round, |
| [01:31:00] |
In a little stream by the cabin door, |
| [01:34:00] |
The body of sweet Annie was found,hummm |
| [02:04:00] |
Sweet Annie's parents they live all alone, |
| [02:07:00] |
One mourns,the other cries, |
| [02:11:50] |
In a little green mound in front of their door, |
| [02:15:50] |
The body of sweet Annie now lies. |
| [02:23:00] |
Willie Moore scarce spoke that anyone knew, |
| [02:28:00] |
Soon from his friends did part; |
| [02:31:00] |
And the last heard of him was he's on Montreal, |
| [02:35:00] |
Where he died of a broken heart. |
| [02:43:00] |
