|
The blood upon the bridal wreath |
|
The bridal wreath, the bridal wreath |
|
The devil shows his shiny teeth |
|
His shiny teeth, his shiny teeth |
|
Oh, shiny teeth |
|
Now take a seat there by the door |
|
He'll leave you on the killing floor |
|
He's gone and set the clouds on fire |
|
They're burning there forever more |
|
The wind has blown the clouds away |
|
The clouds away, the clouds away |
|
It soon will be our wedding day |
|
Our wedding day, our wedding day |
|
The sun will shine |
|
The sun will shine, the birds will sing |
|
I'll give my love a wedding ring |
|
The briar and the rose shall be |
|
Entwined, my love, forever more |
|
The sun will shine, the birds will sing |
|
I'll give my love a wedding ring |
|
The briar and the rose shall be |
|
Entwined, my love, forever more |
|
Oh, knock on the hickory of a peg-leg man |
|
A peg-leg man, a peg-leg man |
|
I'll wait beneath a blood-red moon |
|
A blood-red moon, a blood-red moon |
|
'Neath a blood-red moon |
|
I'd rather die than part from you |
|
I have a lovely wish for you |
|
I'll wait here by the shady bush |
|
You'll be mine forever more |
