[00:01.45]Knoxville Girl - The Hit Crew
[00:08.69]I met a little girl in Knoxville
[00:12.76]A town we all know well
[00:17.15]And every sunday evening
[00:21.82]In her home I'd dwell
[00:25.51]We went to take an evening walk
[00:29.73]About a mile from town
[00:33.86]I picked a stick up off the ground
[00:37.92]And I knocked that fair girl down
[00:42.16]She fell down on her bended knees
[00:46.45]For mercy she did cry
[00:50.55]"Oh Willy dear don't kill me yet
[00:54.84]I'm unprepared to die"
[00:59.07]She never spoke another word
[01:03.32]I only beat her more
[01:07.56]Until the ground around me
[01:11.81]With her blood did flow
[01:24.48]I took her by her golden curls
[01:28.31]And I dragged her 'round and 'round
[01:33.15]Throwing her into the river
[01:36.85]That flows from Knoxville town
[01:41.19]Go down go down you Knoxville girl
[01:45.19]With your dark and roving eyes
[01:49.56]Go down go down you Knoxville girl
[01:53.58]You can never be my bride
[01:58.12]They carried me down to Knoxville
[02:02.16]And put me in a cell
[02:06.39]My friends all tried to get me out
[02:10.43]But none could grow my bail
[02:14.75]I'm here to waste my life away
[02:18.82]Down in this dirty old jail
[02:23.21]Because I murdered that Knoxville girl
[02:27.59]Girl I loved so well
