Lyrics
She went upstairs to make her bed And not a word to her mother said Her mother, she went upstairs too Saying, "Daughter, oh daughter, what's troublin' you?" "Oh mother dear, I cannot tell That railroad boy that I love so well He courted me my life away And now at home, he will not stay." "There is a place in London town Where railroad boy goes and sits down And he takes a stranger on his knee And he tells to her what he won't tell me." Her father he came home from work Sayin', "Where is my daughter, she seems so hurt" He went upstairs to give her hope An' he found her hangin' from a rope He took his knife and he cut her down And on her bosom these words he found: "Go dig my grave both wide and deep Put a marble stone at my head and feet And over my coffin put a snow-white dove To show the world that I died of love
