lyrics

There were two little sisters walking alone.
O the wind and rain.
One spoke of rapture, the other of woe.
O the lonesome wind and rain.

And they both had love of the miller’s son.
O the wind and rain.
But he was fond of the merry one.
O the lonesome wind and rain.

So she plunged her in the river to drown.
O the wind and rain.
And the river wept as she floated down.
O the lonesome wind and rain.

She drifted down to the miller’s pond.
O the wind and rain.
dead on the water like a golden swan.
O the lonesome wind and rain.

And along came the road, came a fiddler fair,
O the wind and rain.
And found her body a-lying there.
O the lonesome wind and rain.

So he made a fiddle of the darling doe.
O the wind and rain.
Strings from her hair, and pegs from her bones.
O the lonesome wind and rain.

But the only tune that the fiddle would play...
O the wind and rain.
The only tune that the fiddle would play...
O the lonesome wind and rain.
