I Will Not Wear the Willow

I will not wear the willow Though my love is gone There's a cool corner of the pillow I will lay my head on I will lay my head on I will not grieve in sorrow For what has come to pass Turn my thoughts to tomorrow I will not cast the glass I will not cast the glass And I will not tremble With the women in black He's gone to the devil And he won't be coming back Some said he took the shilling Some said he took to the sea Some said there once was a killing And the killer was he And the killer was he I will not wear the willow I will not lower my eyes Though it's not on my pillow I know where he lies I know where he lies And I will not tremble With the women in black He's gone to the devil And he won't be, he won't be coming back He won't be coming back... 1
