And in the ditch there was no water
E
Bm

Where only bush and briars grew

With heavy sigh and bitter groan,

She found in the ditch where he

And homeward she then did go.
When she returned that to her brothers,

Sister, what makes you look so thin?
D
A
Bm
Brother, don't you ask the reason,
F#m
And for his sake ye shall be hung.
