Rain and Snow

Some had me a wife

She gave me trouble all my life

She made me work in the cold rain and snow

Rain and snow, rain and snow

Made me work in the cold rain and snow

And she dressed me in the rags

And the worst of old rags

And went dressed like a lady in some town

In some town, in some town

And went dressed like a lady in some town

She come down the stairs

Comin' back her long wavy hair

And her cheeks was as red as a rose

As a rose, as a rose

And her cheeks was as red as a rose

And I took her to her room

Where she made her fatal doom

And I trembled to my knees with cold fear

With cold fear, with cold fear

And I trembled to my knees with cold fear

I shot her through the head

And I laid her on the bed

And I trembled to my knees with cold fear

With cold fear, with cold fear

And I trembled to my knees with cold fear
