Weila Waile

Lyrics

[Verse 1] And there was an old woman and she lived in the woods A weila weila waile There was an old woman and she lived in the woods Down by the river Saile [Verse 2] She had a baby three months old A weila weila waile She had a baby three months old Down by the river Saile [Verse 3] She had a penknife long and sharp A weila weila waile She had a penknife long and sharp Down by the river Saile [Verse 4] She stuck the penknife in the baby's heart A weila weila waile She stuck the penknife in the baby's heart Down by the river Saile [Verse 5] There was three loud knocks come a-knockin on the door A weile weile waile Three loud knocks come a-knockin on the door Down by the river Saile [Verse 6] There was two policeman and a man A weila weila waile Two policeman and a man Down by the river Saile [Verse 7] They took her away and they put her into jail A weila weila waile They took her away and they put her into jail Down by the river Saile [Verse 8] They put a rope around her neck A weila weila waile They put a rope around her neck Down by the river Saile [Verse 9] They pulled the rope she got hung A weila weila waile They pulled the rope she got hung Down by the river Saile [Verse 10] Now that was the end of the woman in the woods A weila weila waile And that was the end of the baby too Down by the river Saile
