benjamin dakota rogers - charlie boy lyrics

charlie boy lyrics
so i found her there
beneath that willow tree, said
“oh, my darling
won’t you come with me?” she said;
“oh, charlie boy, that just wouldn’t do
i’m marrying another man
there’s nothing you can do.”

said; “what if i took a knife
and i put it in his chest?
then would you believe me, darling
that i love you best?”
they said; “oh, charlie boy
that just wouldn’t do
if you put a knife in his chest
well i’ll be after you.”

said; “well, what if i took your hand
and i lead you across the sea?
then would forget ’bout him?
would you marry me?” she said;
“oh, charlie boy, that just wouldn’t do
if we crossed the ocean blue, you’d shame my family.”

so i see her standing up there
in a white+laced dress
and the priest cry’s out;
“does anyone protest?” they said;
“oh, charlie boy, sit back in your pew
she’s marrying another man
there’s nothing you can do.”
and i guess i couldn’t take it, and i just saw red
and i pulled my pistol off my hip, and i shot him in the head
and they said;
“oh, charlie boy, what the h+ll’d you do?
you k!lled him on his wedding night
the hangman’ll have you soon.”

so i’m rotting here, in this city cell
’bout tomorrow morning, i’ll be resting in h+ll, they said;
“oh, charlie boy, look how far you fell
she never really loved you, now she never will.”
