Kate McCannon lyrics

Well the raven is a wicked bird

His wings are black as sin

And he floats outside my prison window

Mocking those within

And he sings to me real low

It's hell to where you go

For you did murder Kate McCannon

When I first met Tom McCannon

I was working in the mines

Said he had himself a dark haired daughter

With long, green eyes

When she and I did meet

She was bathing in the creek

Prettiest girl in the whole damn holler

That ain't no lie

So I went a courtin' Kate McCannon

Got me a job and I quit my ramblin'

And every day I'd save

A quarter of my pay

I could buy a diamond ring

Lord and one day I come home to find

My darlin' angel's not inside

So I made for the creek

Where she and I did meet

And found her with some other lover

And I put three rounds into Kate McCannon
