Harper
Quelle: Spotify
Father, Father build me a cabin fine
There I'll go at once and lay me down
Build for me a bed of pine
For I feel my time is a coming 'round
Love of mine, love of mine
Love of mine, love of mine
No daughter of mine will suffer shame
I'll build your cabin by the lake
There I'll wait with you till Harper comes
And his black and bloody life I'll take
Love of mine, love of mine
Love of mine, love of mine
She lay down upon her bed of pain
She was groanin' as her time drew nigh
Father turn your face unto the wall
For I see a murder in your eyes
Love of mine, love of mine
Love of mine, love of mine
Now Harper he stepped up to the cabin door
His horse he'd left in the woods nearby
He stepped into the cabin carelessly
And he heard a low and a deadly cry
Love of mine, love of mine
Love of mine, love of mine
Oh you bloody awful man
My daughter's pain is all because of you
You would not take her for your wedded wife
And now it's a terrible thing that I must do
Love of mine, love of mine
Love of mine, love of mine
He fired his gun and Harper he fell down
His blood fell on the dark and Earthen floor
Lie there, lie there you faithless man
You'll never break your vows no more
Love of mine, love of mine
Love of mine, love of mine
