Christy Moore - Weela Waile lyrics

And there was an old woman and she lived in the woods A weila weila waila There was an old woman and she lived in the woods Down by the River Saile She had a baby three months old A weila weila waila She had a baby three months old Down by the River Saile She had a penknife long and sharp A weila weila waila She had a penknife long and sharp Down by the River Saile She stuck the penknife in the baby's heart A weila weila waila She stuck the penknife in the baby's heart Down by the River Saile Three loud knocks came knocking on the door A weila weila waila Three loud knocks came knocking on the door Down by the River Saile "Are you the woman who k**ed the child?" A weila weila waila "Are you the woman who k**ed the child?" Down by the River Saile "Yes I'm the woman Yes I'm the woman Yes I'm the woman who k**ed the child" A weila weila waila "Yes I'm the woman who k**ed the child" Down by the River Saile They took her away and they hung her by the neck A weila weila waila They took her away and they hung her by the neck Down by the River Saile And that was the end of the woman in the woods A weila weila waila That was the end of the woman in the woods Down by the River Saile
