Down In the Valley / Birmingham Jail

Down In the Valley / Birmingham Jail
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHyznIf0XLc


Down in the valley, the valley so low,
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow,
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind blow,
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow.

Roses love sunshine, violets love dew,
Angels in heaven, know I love you,
Know I love you, love, know I love you,
Angels in heaven, know I love you.

Writing this letter, containing three lines,
Answer my question, "Will you be mine?"
"Will you be mine, love, will you be mine?"
Answer my question, "Will you be mine?"

Write me a letter, send it by mail,
Send it in care of, the Birmingham jail,
Birmingham jail, love, Birmingham jail,
Send it in care of, the Birmingham jail.

If you don’t love me, love whom you please,
But let me be near you, give my heart ease,
Give my heart ease, love, give my heart ease,
Let me be near you, give my heart ease.

Throw your arms ‘round me, before it's too late,
Throw your arms ‘round me, feel my heart break,
Feel my heart break, love, feel my heart break,
Throw your arms ‘round me, feel my heart break.

Bessie my darlin’, Bessie my dear,
Trust me when I say, my love is sincere,
My love is sincere, love, my love is sincere,
Trust me when I say, my love is sincere.

Build me a castle, build it so high,
So I can see my, true love go by,
See her go by, love, see her go by,
So I can see my true love go by.

Down in the valley, the valley so low,
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow,
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind blow,
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow.

Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind blow,
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow.
