| [00:08.119] | Oh, in the merry month of May |
| [00:13.178] | The green buds they were a swelling |
| [00:18.272] | Sweet William on his deathbed lay |
| [00:23.490] | For the love of Barbara Allen |
| [00:28.213] | |
| [00:28.962] | He sent his servant to her door |
| [00:33.229] | To the place where she was dwelling |
| [00:38.636] | Oh miss, oh miss come quickly now |
| [00:43.804] | If your name be Barbara Allen |
| [00:48.987] | |
| [00:49.478] | Slowly, slowly she got up, |
| [00:54.273] | And slowly she came nigh him, |
| [00:59.407] | She drew the curtain to one side |
| [01:04.511] | She said "Young man, you're a dyin'." |
| [01:10.829] | |
| [01:11.268] | Yes, I am sick and very sick, |
| [01:15.998] | And griefs is in me dwelling |
| [01:21.589] | No better, no better I'll ever be |
| [01:26.731] | if I don't get Barbara Allen |
| [01:32.406] | |
| [01:33.220] | Do you remember the other night |
| [01:38.372] | When you were at the Tavern |
| [01:43.977] | You drank a health to the ladies all |
| [01:49.204] | But slighted Barbara Allen. |
| [01:54.496] | |
| [01:54.570] | Yes, I remember the other night |
| [01:59.096] | When I was at the tavern |
| [02:04.690] | I gave a health to the ladies all |
| [02:09.457] | And my heart to Barbara Allen |
| [02:14.816] | |
| [02:15.979] | He turned his face toward the wall, |
| [02:21.384] | For death was in him dwellin': |
| [02:26.720] | "Goodbye, Goodbye, my dear friends all, |
| [02:31.778] | Be kind to Barbara Allen!" |
| [02:36.800] | |
| [02:38.439] | As she was walking towards her home, |
| [02:42.957] | She heard the death bell knellin'; |
| [02:48.492] | And every stroke it seemed to say |
| [02:53.456] | "Cold hearted Barbara Allen.” |
| [02:58.356] | |
| [02:59.756] | "Oh mother, mother, make my bed, |
| [03:04.914] | Make it long and narrow |
| [03:11.077] | Sweet William died for me today, |
| [03:16.463] | I'll die for him tomorrow.” |
