She went upstairs to make her bed
And not a word to her mother said
Her mother she went upstairs too
Saying "daughter oh daughter, what troubles you?"

"Oh Mother mother, I cannot tell
of that Railroad Boy I love so well"

There is a place in London town
Where that Railroad Boy goes and sits down
He takes some strange girl on his knee
And he tells to her what he won't tell me

Her father he came home from work
saying "where's my daughter? She looks so hurt"
He went upstairs for to give her hope
and he found her hanging by a rope

He took his knife for to cut her down,
And on her b______ these words he found

"Go dig a grave both wide and deep
Place a marble stone at my head and feet
And over my coffin place a snow white dove
To prove to the world I died for love."
