billy cobb - knoxville girl lyrics

Loading...

[verse]
i met a little girl in knoxville
a town we all know well
and every sunday evening
out in her home i’d dwell
we went to take an evening walk
about a mile from town
i picked a stick up from the ground
and knocked that fair girl down

[verse]
she fell down on a bed of leaves
for mercy she did cry
“oh w_lly, dear don’t k!ll me here”
“i’m unprepared to die”
she never spoke another word

until the ground around me
within her blood did pour

[verse]
i took hеr by her golden curls
and drug her ’round and ’round
throwing her into the river
that flows through knoxville town
go down, go down, you knoxville girl
with the dark and rolling eyes
go down, go down, you knoxville girl
you can never be my bride
[solo]

[verse]
i started back to knoxville
got there about midnight
my mother, she was worried
and woke up in a fright
saying “dear son, what have you done”
“to bl__dy your poor soul”
i told my anxious mother
i was bleeding out my nose

[verse]
i called for me a candle
to light myself to bed
i called for me a handkerchief
to bind my aching head
rolling to move [?] the whole night through
’cause trouble was for me
like flames of h_ll around my bed
and in my eyes could see

[verse]
they carried me down to knoxville
and put me in a cell
my friends all tried to get me out
but none could pay my bail
i’m here to waste my life away
down in this dirty jail
because i murdered that knoxville girl
the girl i loved so well
