Willie Moore was a king, age twenty-one, he courted a damsel fair.
For her eyes were as bright as a tiny-scented night, and her wavy black was her hair.
He courted her both nights and days, till a married lady agreed.
But when he came to get her parents' consent, they said it could never be.
She threw herself in Willie Moore's arms, as all time had done before.
But little did he think when they parted that night, sweet Anna, he would say no.
[A]
[G]
It was about the tenth of May, that time I remember well.
That very same night her body disappeared in a way no time could tell.
She said it was love, oh, for a dear, had friends most all around.
And in the little brook before the cottage door, there, by day, oh, sweet Anna was.
She was taken by her weeping friends and carried to her parents' room.
And there she was dressed in a shroud, in a way white, and laid in her lowly bed.
Her parents now were left alone one morning, and the other day, but, oh, sweet Anna, still asleep.
This song was composed in the cloudy west by a man you may never have seen.
Oh, I'm sure you'll be mean, but it is not in full hearing issues of J.R..J. [A] [G]
