down in the valley

down in the valley the valley so low

hang your head over

hear the wind blow

hear the wind blow love

hear the wind blow

hang your head over

hear the wind blow

roses love sunshine

violets love dew

angels in heaven

know i love you

if you don't love me

love whom you please

put your arms round me

give my heart ease

give my heart ease love

give my heart ease

put your arms round me

give my heart ease

write me a letter

send it by mail

send it in care of

the birmingham jail

birmingham jail love

birmingham jail

send it in care of

the birmingham jail

build me a castle

forty feet high

so i can see her

as she rides by

as she rides by love

as she rides by

so i can see her

as she rides by

down in the valley

the valley so low

hang your head over

hear the wind blow
