There were three ravens on a tree
A-down a-down a derry down
There were three ravens on a tree
Hi ho
There were three ravens on a tree
The middlemost raven said to me
A-down a-down a derry down
Hi ho
There were three ravens on a tree
A-down a-down a derry down
There were three ravens on a tree
Hi ho
The middlemost raven said to me
"There lies a dead man at yon tree"
A-down a-down a derry down
Hi ho
Here comes the lady full of woe
A-down a-down a derry down
Here comes the lady full of woe
Hi ho
Here comes the lady full of woe
Shes gone as far as she can go
A-down a-down a derry down
Hi ho
Hi ho x2
Who's this that's killed my lover now?
A-down a-down a derry down
Who's this that's killed my lover now?
Hi ho
I hope in heaven he'll never rest
Never enjoy that blessed place that's
Down a-down a derry down
Hi ho
