《Omie Wise》歌词

[00:00:00] Omie Wise - Greg Graffin

[00:00:07] Come listen to my story I'll tell you no lies

[00:00:14] How john Lewis did murder a little Omie wise

[00:00:22] He asked her to meet him at Adam's spring

[00:00:30] Said he'd bring her money and other fine things

[00:00:38] So fool like she met him at Adam's spring

[00:00:45] No money he brought her nor other fine things

[00:01:10] John Lewis john Lewis won't you tell me your mind

[00:01:17] Do you intend to marry me or leave me behind

[00:01:26] Little Omie little Omie I will tell you my mind

[00:01:33] My plan is to drown you and leave you behind

[00:01:42] Have mercy on my baby and spare me my life

[00:01:49] I'll go home as a beggar and never be your wife

[00:02:13] He hugged her and he kissed her

[00:02:17] And turned her around and threw her

[00:02:21] In deep water where he knew that she

[00:02:25] Would drown

[00:02:29] It was on one Thursday morning the rain came pouring down

[00:02:36] And they searched for Omie's body but it

[00:02:40] Nowhere could be found

[00:02:45] Two boys went a fishin' one fine summer day

[00:02:52] And they saw little Omie's body go floating away

[00:03:16] They called for john Lewis to come to

[00:03:21] That place so he could see her body and they could see his face

[00:03:32] Though he made no confession they threw him in jail

[00:03:39] No friend nor relation would go on his bail
