Verse 1
recording now?
Oh, it is.
E
A
Well, she met him as she promised
D
I bet Adam's his spring
E
Expecting some money
A
Or some other fine thing
No money, no money
D
To fly to the case
E
I'll have to get married
A
So there'll be no disgrace
So jump you up on me
D
And away we will ride
E
To yonder fair country
A
Where the cool waters glide
She jumped up behind him
D
And away they did ride
E
To yonder fair country
D
A
Where the deep waters glide
Now jump you down, old me
D
And I'll tell you my mind
E
My mom just to drown you,
A
and to leave you behind
She begged and she pleaded,
D
oh don't take my life
E
And I will deny you,
A
and I'll not be your wife
Mother, she kicked and he cuffed her
D
to the worst understand
E
And he threw her in deep water
A
that flows through the land
D
They found her poor body the following day
E
A preacher an d a reverend,
A
Lord, they all began to pray
Then up spoke her mother
D
with a voice so esteemed
Nobody but John Lewis
E
A
could have done such a thing
They traced him up the waters
D
to Judge Charlie's Bend
E
I'm in jail for killin' a man
A
Go hang him, go hang him,
D
was at mother's command
E
And throw him in deep waters
A
that flows through the land
