When I was a young girl I used to seek pleasure
When I was a young girl I used to drink ale
Right out of the alehouse and into the jailhouse
Right out of the barroom and down to my grave
Come, mama - come, papa - sitting beside me
Come, mama - come, papa - pity my case
Cause my head it is aching, my heart it is breaking
My body salvated and I"m bound to die

 Go send for the preacher to come and pray for me
Go send for the doctor to heal up my wounds
Cause my head it is aching, and my heart it is breaking
My body salvated, and Hell is my home

I want three young ladies to bear up my coffin
I want three young ladies to take me along
You know that I want them to carry a bunch of white roses
To lay on my body, as I pass - oh, Lord

One morning in May
I spy this young lady, all clad in white linen
All clad in white linen and cold as clay
