Lily Of The West

When first I came to Louisville, some pleasure there to findA damsel there from Lexington was pleasing to my mindHer rosy cheeks, her ruby lips, like arrows pierced my breastAnd the name she bore was Flora, the lily of the west.

I courted lovely Flora some pleasure for to findBut she turned unto another man whose sore distressed my mindShe robbed me of my liberty, deprived me of my restThen go, my lovely Flora, the lily of the west.

Away down in yonder shady grove, a man of high degreeConversin' with my Flora there, it seemed so strange to meAnd the answer that she gave to him it sore did me oppressI was betrayed by Flora, the lily of the west.

I stepped up my rival, dagger in my handI seized him by the collar, and bodly made him standSeing mad by desperation I pierced him to the breastAll this for lovely Flora, the lily of the west.

I had to stand my trial, I had to make my pleaThey placed me in the witness box and then commenced on meAlthough she swore my life away, deprived me of my restStill I love my faithless Flora, the Lily of the west.
