And The Ravens Did Croak by Helldorado Lyrics
Young Willy rode out on a dark autumn day
Cross' mountains and plains he rode away
He rode away to see his true love
There was no one beside her and no one above
Her hair it was red and her eyes they were green
Her skin it was soft like at sweet seventeen
A sweet seventeen with a rose in her hand
To place on her finger a gold wedding band
The cold winds did blow in the ash and the oak
The cold winds did blow and the ravens did croak
The ravеns did croak and the crows they did cry
The lеaves on the trees had started to die
He stepped up beside her asked tenderly
Molly, dear Molly will you marry me?
Will you marry me, my sweet darling dear?
But she looked away with eyes full of fear
Willy oh, Willy I can't marry you
I'm spoken for and you know that it's true
You know that it's true that away you must go
So get up on your horse and please don't be slow
The cold winds did blow in the ash and the oak
The cold winds did blow and the ravens did croak
The ravens did croak and the crows they did cry
The leaves on the trees had started to die
But Willy he raved when he heard what she said
And the very next moment he was out of his head
He was out his head so he pulled out his knife
And he killed the poor girl, no other man's wife
Then Willy went down to the broad river side
He sat down on the banks to wait for his bride
To wait for his bride and her name it was death
And gently the water took away his last breath
The cold winds did blow in the ash and the oak
The cold winds did blow and the ravens did croak
The ravens did croak and the crows they did cry
The leaves on the trees had started to die
Cross' mountains and plains he rode away
He rode away to see his true love
There was no one beside her and no one above
Her hair it was red and her eyes they were green
Her skin it was soft like at sweet seventeen
A sweet seventeen with a rose in her hand
To place on her finger a gold wedding band
The cold winds did blow in the ash and the oak
The cold winds did blow and the ravens did croak
The ravеns did croak and the crows they did cry
The lеaves on the trees had started to die
He stepped up beside her asked tenderly
Molly, dear Molly will you marry me?
Will you marry me, my sweet darling dear?
But she looked away with eyes full of fear
Willy oh, Willy I can't marry you
I'm spoken for and you know that it's true
You know that it's true that away you must go
So get up on your horse and please don't be slow
The cold winds did blow in the ash and the oak
The cold winds did blow and the ravens did croak
The ravens did croak and the crows they did cry
The leaves on the trees had started to die
But Willy he raved when he heard what she said
And the very next moment he was out of his head
He was out his head so he pulled out his knife
And he killed the poor girl, no other man's wife
Then Willy went down to the broad river side
He sat down on the banks to wait for his bride
To wait for his bride and her name it was death
And gently the water took away his last breath
The cold winds did blow in the ash and the oak
The cold winds did blow and the ravens did croak
The ravens did croak and the crows they did cry
The leaves on the trees had started to die
