lyrics

When I met her, we were children playing Ring Around the Rose…
The brightest eyes and fairest hair had my little Josie.
And I knew I loved her even then, the sweetest girl in town -
Ashes, ashes, we all fall down.

Years later, we were sweethearts - Lord, I loved her heart and soul.
So I asked her if she’d marry me - a ring for little Josie.
When she said she loved another, in my rage I shot her down…
Ashes, ashes, we all fall down.

Now I’m waiting here in prison for the fire of the rising sun,
And I know there’s no denying this awful thing I’ve done…
And when they come to hang me, Lord, I know right where I’m bound.
Ashes, ashes, we all fall down.
