《Willie Moore》歌词

[00:00:00] Kate & Anna McGarrigle - Willie Moore

[00:00:11] Willie Moore was a king his age twenty-one

[00:00:16] He courted a damsel fair

[00:00:21] O her eyes was as bright as the diamonds in the night

[00:00:26] And wavy black was her hair

[00:00:32] He courted her both night and day

[00:00:37] 'Til to marry they did agree

[00:00:42] But when he ask her parents consent

[00:00:48] They said it could never be

[00:00:52] She threw herself in Willie Moore's arms

[00:00:58] As oftime had done before

[00:01:03] But little did he think when they parted that night

[00:01:10] Sweet Anna he would see no more

[00:01:34] It was about the tenth of May

[00:01:39] The time I remember well

[00:01:44] That very same night her body disappeared

[00:01:50] In a way no tongue could tell

[00:01:54] Sweet Annie was loved both far and near

[00:01:59] Had friends most all around

[00:02:05] And in a little brook before the cottage door

[00:02:10] The body of sweet Anna was found

[00:02:15] She was taken by her weeping friends

[00:02:20] And carried to her room

[00:02:25] And there she was dressed in a gown of snowy white

[00:02:30] And laid her in a lonely tomb

[00:02:35] Her parents now are left all alone

[00:02:41] One mourns while the other one weeps

[00:02:46] And in a grassy mound before the cottage door

[00:02:52] The body of sweet Anna still sleeps

[00:02:56] Willie Moore never spoke that anyone heard

[00:03:00] And at length from his friends did part

[00:03:04] And the last heard from him he'd gone to Montreal

[00:03:10] Where he died of a broken heart

[00:03:36] Willie Moore was a king his age twenty-one

[00:03:42] He courted a damsel fair

[00:03:47] O her eyes was as bright as the diamonds in the night

[00:03:52] And wavy black was her hair
