The Young Dubliners - Weila 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 her child? Down by the River Saile They took her away and they put her into jail A weila weila waila They took her away and they put her into jail Down by the River Saile I'm the woman who k**ed the child Yes I'm the woman who k**ed her child The rope was swung and she was hung A weila weila waila The rope was swung and she was hung Down by the River Saile And that was the end of the woman in the woods A weila weila waila I said that was the end of the woman in the woods Down by the River Saile
