Dubliners - Weile Waila lyrics

There was an old woman and she lived in the woods Weile, weile, waile; There was an old woman and she lived in the woods Down by the river Saile She had a baby three months old Weile, weile, waile She had a baby three months old Down by the river Saile; She had a penknife long and sharp Weile, weile, waile She had a penknife long and sharp Down by the river Saile; She stuck the penknife in the baby's heart Weile, weile, waile She stuck the penknife in the baby's heart Down by the river Saile; Three policemen and a detective bobby came knocking at the door Weile, weile, waile Three policemen and a detective bobby came knocking at the door Down by the river Saile; They pulled the rope and she was hung Weile, weile, waile They pulled the rope and she was hung Down by the river Saile; And that was the end of the woman in the woods Weile, weile, waile And that was the end of the baby too Down by the river Saile
