Okkervil River - Dreadful Wind And Rain lyrics

There were two sisters Come walkin' down the stream Oh, the wind and rain The one behind pushed the other one in Cryin' oh, the dreadful wind and rain Johnny gave the youngest one a gay gold ring Oh, the wind and rain Didn't give the oldest one anything Cryin' oh, the dreadful wind and rain Sister, oh sister, give me thy hand Oh, the wind and rain You can have Johnny and all his land Cryin' oh, the dreadful wind and rain Sister, I'll not give you my hand Oh, the wind and rain And I'll have Johnny and all his land Cryin' oh, the dreadful wind and rain She pushed her into the river to drown Oh, the wind and rain Watched her as she floated down Cryin' oh, the dreadful wind and rain She floated 'till she came to a miller's pond Oh, the wind and rain And father, oh father, there swims a swan Cryin' oh, the dreadful wind and rain The miller pulled her out with a fishing hook Oh, the wind and rain Drew that fair maid from the brook Cryin' oh, the dreadful wind and rain He left her on the banks to dry Oh, the wind and rain And a fiddlin' fool come pa**ing by Cryin' oh, the dreadful wind and rain Out of the woods came a fiddler fair Oh, the wind and rain Took seven strands of her long yellow hair Cryin' oh, the dreadful wind and rain And he made a fiddle bow of her long yellow hair Oh, the wind and rain He made a fiddle bow of her long yellow hair Cryin' oh, the dreadful wind and rain And he made fiddle pegs of her little finger bones Oh, the wind and rain He made fiddle pegs of her little finger bones Cryin' oh, the dreadful wind and rain And he made a little fiddle of her breast bone Oh, the wind and rain The sound could melt a heart of stone Cryin' oh, the dreadful wind and rain And the only tune that fiddle would play Was oh, the wind and rain The only tune that fiddle would play Was oh, the dreadful wind and rain
