lyrics

i was born in old east virginia
north carolina i did roam
there i met me a fair pretty maiden
what was her age i did not know

her hair it was of a dark brown curly
her lips they were of a rosy red
upon her breast she wore a ribbon
oh the tears that i have shed

her papa said that we might marry
her mama said it would not do
some dark night if you'll take a ramble
i will run away with you

for id rather be in some dark holler
where the sun refused to shine
than for you to be another mans woman
neer on earth to call you mine
