Wind and Rain

Wind and Rain -Crooked Still

There were two sisters came walking down the stream

Oh the wind and rain

Older one pushed the youngest one in

Cryin'oh the dreadful wind and rain

Cause Johnny gave the youngest one a gay gold ring

Oh the wind and rain

Didn't give the oldest one anything

Cryin'oh the dreadful wind and rain

So she pushed her into the river to drown

Oh the wind and rain

Watched her as she floated down

Cryin'oh the dreadful wind and rain

She floated till she came to the miller's pond

Oh the wind and rain

Cried father o father there swims a swan

Cryin'oh the dreadful wind and rain

Then out of the woods came a fidder fair

Oh the wind and rain

He plucked thirty strands of her long yellow hair

Cryin'oh the dreadful wind and rain

And he made a fiddle bow of her long yellow hair

Oh the wind and rain

Made a fiddle bow of her long yellow hair

Cryin'oh the dreadful wind and rain

And he made fiddle pegs of her long finger bones

Oh the wind and rain

He made fiddle pegs of her long finger bones

Cryin'oh the dreadful wind and rain

And he made a little fiddle of her own breast bone

Oh the wind and rain

The sound could melt a heart of stone

Cryin'oh the dreadful wind and rain

And the only tune that the fiddle would play

Was oh the wind and rain

Only tune that the fiddle would play

Was oh the dreadful wind and rain
