| There was a fair maiden lived in the north | |
| Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh | |
| She fell in love with her father's clerk | |
| Down by the Greenwood side, oh | |
| He courted her a year and a day | |
| Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh | |
| Till her, the young man did betray | |
| Down by the Greenwood side, oh | |
| She leaned her back against the thorn | |
| Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh | |
| And there, two bonny boys, she's born | |
| Down by the Greenwood side, oh | |
| She's taken out her little knife | |
| Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh | |
| And she's robbed them of their life | |
| Down by the Greenwood side, oh | |
| There, she walked by her father's wall | |
| Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh | |
| She saw her two bonny boys playing ball | |
| Down by the Greenwood side, oh | |
| Oh, bonny boys, if you were mine, | |
| Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh | |
| I'd dress you up in silk so fine | |
| Down by the Greenwood side, oh | |
| Oh, mother dear, when we were dying, | |
| Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh | |
| You did not treat us then so fine | |
| Down by the Greenwood side, oh | |
| Now, bonny boys, come tell to me | |
| Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh | |
| What sort of life I'll have after dying? | |
| Down by the Greenwood side, oh | |
| Seven years of visions of blood | |
| Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh | |
| And seven years of hurt in the womb | |
| Down by the Greenwood side, oh | |
| Seven years down in the mourning bell | |
| Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh | |
| And seven years in the flames of hell | |
| Down by the Greenwood side, oh | |
| Welcome, welcome, visions of blood | |
| Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh | |
| And welcome, welcome, hurt in the womb | |
| Down by the Greenwood side, oh | |
| Welcome down to the mourning bell | |
| Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh | |
| But, God, save me from the flames of hell | |
| Down by the Greenwood side, oh | |
| Down by the Greenwood side |
