Glass Of Wine
Traditional 1. Come little girl let's go get married My love is so great how can you slight me I'll work for you both late and early And at our wedding my little wife you'll be 2. Oh Willie dear, let's both consider We'll both too young to be married now When we're married we're bound together Let's stay single just one more year 3. He went to the bar where she was dancing A jealous thought came to his mind I'll kill that girl my own true lover For I let another man beat my time 4. He went to the bar and he called her to him Said: Willie dear, what you want with me? Come and drink wine with the one that loves you More than anymore else you know, said he 5. While they were in the bar a-drinking That same old thought came to his mind He killed the girl his own true lover He gave her poison in a glass of wine 6. She laid her head over on his shoulder Said: Willie dear, please take me home That glass of wine that I've been drinking Has gone to my head and done me wrong 7. He laid his head over on the pillow Let me read you the Lord let me tell you one line Molly, I'm sorry to tell you We both drank poison in a glass of wine 8. They told their arms around each other They cast their eyes into the sky Oh God, oh God, ain't this a pity That the both true lovers are bound to die? THE COUNTRY GENTLEMEN - On The Road
