What Are The Lyrics For The Lily of the West By Joan Baez?
Lily of the West
Arrangement by Joan Baez When first I came to Louisville Some pleasure there to find A damsel there from Lexington Was pleasing to my mind Her rosy cheeks, her ruby lips Like arrows pierced my breast And the name she bore was Flora The Lily Of The West I courted lovely Flora Some pleasure there to find She turned unto another man Which sore distressed my mind She robbed me of my liberty Deprived me of my rest Still I love my faithless Flora The Lily Of The West Down in yonder shady grove A man of high degree Conversing with my Flora there It seemed so strange to me And the answer that she gave to him It sure did me oppress I was betrayed by Flora The Lily Of The West I stepped up to my rival My dagger in my hand I seized him by the collar and I boldly made him stand Being mad to desperation I pierced him in the breast All for my lovely Flora The Lily Of The West I had to stand my trial I had to make my plea They placed me in the criminal box And then commenced on me Although she swore my life away Deprived me of my rest And I still love my faithless Flora The Lily Of The West |
