I sit in the park where i dwell
For this boy i love so well
He took my heart away from me
Now he wants to set me free
I see a girl on his lap
He says things to her he never said to me
I ran home to cry on my bed
Not a word to mother was said
Father came home late that night
He looked at me from left to right
He saw me hanging from a rope
He took his knife to cut me down
And on my dress a note was found
It said:
Dig my grave
Dig it deep
Dig my grave
From head to feet
And on the top place a dove
Remember this I died for love
