| [00:00.00] | Omie Wise - Bert Jansch |
| [00:06.86] | Oh listen to my story I'll tell you no lies |
| [00:13.10] | How John Lewes did murder poor little Omie Wise |
| [00:22.23] | He told to her meet him at Adam's Spring |
| [00:28.91] | He promised her money and other fine things |
| [00:37.79] | And fool like she met him at Adam's Spring |
| [00:44.29] | No money did he bring her nor other fine things |
| [00:53.35] | Go with me little Omie and away we will go |
| [01:00.02] | We'll go and get married and nobody will know |
| [01:08.77] | Well she climbed up behind him and away they did go |
| [01:15.83] | But down to the river where deep waters flow |
| [01:33.52] | “ John Lewes John Lewes will you tell to me your mind |
| [01:40.58] | Do you intend to marry me or leave me behind ” |
| [01:46.70] | “ Little Omie little Omie I'll tell to you my mind |
| [01:54.64] | My mind is to drown you and leave you behind ” |
| [02:00.21] | “ Have mercy on my baby and spare me my life |
| [02:09.83] | I'll go home as a beggar and never be your wife” |
| [02:34.77] | He hugged her and kissed her and turned her around |
| [02:41.45] | And pushed her in deep water where he knew that she would drown |
| [02:49.89] | Then he got up on his pony and away he did ride |
| [02:56.51] | As the screams of little Omie went down by his side |
| [03:05.89] | ' Twas on a Thursday morning the rain was a-pouring down |
| [03:12.39] | When the people searched for Omie but she could not be found |
| [03:31.70] | Two boys went a-fishing one fine sunny day |
| [03:38.51] | And saw little Omie's body go floating away |
| [03:50.01] | They threw their nets around her and drew her to the bank |
| [03:56.39] | Her clothes all wet and muddy they laid her on a plank |
| [04:05.26] | Then sent for John Lewes to come to that place |
| [04:12.60] | And brought her out before him that he might see her face |
| [04:20.84] | Well he made no confession but they carried him to jail |
| [04:27.66] | No friends nor relations would come for his bail |
