Winter is gone

And the leaves are green

Winter is gone

And the leaves turn green

Your innocent face

I wish I never had seen**



Come on, my love

And fare thee well

Come on, my love

And fare thee well

You cheated me

But I wish you well



Rope is bought

And the bough is swung

Rope is bought

And the bough is swung

An innocent man

This day will be hung



Come on, my love

And see me die

Come on, my love

And see me die

See me dancing

Dance 'NEATH  the sky**

'Neath those gallows high

Come on and see me die



Winter is gone

And the leaves are green

Winter is gone

And the leaves ARE green**

Your innocent face

I wish I never had seen**
