Lyrics

And there was an old woman and she lived in the woods
Weila weila waila
There was an old woman and she lived in the woods
Down by the River Saile
She had a baby three months old
Weila weila waila
She had a baby three months old
Down by the River Saile
She had a penknife long and sharp
Weila weila waila
She had a penknife long and sharp
Down by the River Saile
She stuck the penknife in the baby's heart
Weila weila waila
She stuck the penknife in the baby's heart
Down by the River Saile
There were three loud knocks came a'knockin on the door
Weila weila waila
Three loud knocks came a'knockin on the door
Down by the River Saile
There was two policeman and a man
Weila weila waila
Two policeman and a man
Down by the River Saile
They took her away and they put her into jail
Weila weila waila
They took her away and they put her into jail
Down by the River Saile
They put a rope around her neck
Weila weila waila
They put a rope around her neck
Down by the River Saile
They pulled the rope she got hung
Weila weila waila
They pulled the rope she got hung
Down by the River Saile
Well that was the end of the woman in the woods
Weila weila waila
And that was the end of the baby too
Down by the River Saile
