lyrics

I was born in East Virginia.
North Carolina I did go.
I fell in love with a fair young maiden,
though her age I did not know.

Her hair was dark brown and it was curly
and her cheeks were rosy red.
Upon her breast, she wore a white lily.
A thousand tears I know I did shed.

I go up in some deep, dark holler.
I'll set up my moonshine still,
and I will sell you one whole gallon
just for a ten dollar bill.

I'd rather be dead inside my coffin,
my pale face turned up towards the sun
than to think that you loved another
when you promised to be mine.
