(repeat as above)

Then slowly, slowly got she up

And slowly came she nigh him;

And all she said when e'er she came,

“Young man I think you're dyin'.”



Oh, yes I'm sick, I'm very sick

Indeed I think I'm dyinBut a word from you will revive me again

Oh lovely Barbara Allen



"Do you recall, young man," she said,

"When the red wine you were spillin'?

How you made the ladies' health go 'round

And you slighted Barbara Allen?"



And death is printed on his face

and all his heart is stealinbut still he cried as she left his side,

"Hard-hearted Barbara Allen!"



(Play Chords once and let ring)

She was going over the field

she heard the death bell tollinand every sound the death bell gave---

"Hard-hearted Barbara Allen!"



Oh mother, mother make me a bed

Oh make it soft and narrow

since Jimmy died for me today

I'll die for him tomorrow.
