She went upstairs to make her bed
And not a word to her mother said
Her mother she went upstairs too
Saying "Daughter, oh daughter, what's troubling you?"

"Oh mother dear, I cannot tell"
"It's that railroad boy that I love so well"
"He's courted me, my life away"
"And now at home he will not stay"

"There is a place in London town"
"Where that railroad boy goes and sits down"
"He takes a strange girl on his knee"
"And he tells to her what he won't tell me"

Her father he camе home from work
Saying "Where's my daughtеr? She seems so hurt"
He went upstairs to gain her hope
And he found her hangin', hangin' by a rope

Ohh ohh ohh ohh

He took a knife
And cut her down
And on her bosom
These words he found
"Go dig my grave" (Go dig my grave)
"Oh father dear" (Oh father dear)
"Put a marble stone" (Put a marble stone)
"At my head and feet" (At my head and my feet)

And at my breast put a white snow dove
To tell the world that I died of love
And at my breast put a white snow dove
To tell the world that I died of love
