Story behind the song
I was working on a mandolin riff and my Daughter came in and Said I think these lyrics will sound good on it...
Lyrics
The Knoxville Girl I called for me a candle To light myself to bed I called for me a handkerchief To bind my aching head Rolled and tumbled the whole night through As troubles was for me Like flames of hell around my bed And all my eyes could see was The Knoxville Girl I met a little girl in Knoxville A town we all know well And every Sunday evening Out in her home I'd dwell We went to take an evening walk About a mile from town I picked a stick up off the ground And knocked that fair girl down; Go down, go down, you Knoxville girl With the dark and roving eyes Go down, go down, you Knoxville girl You can never be my bride. She fell down on her bended knees For mercy she did cry Oh, Willie dear, don't kill me here I'm unprepared to die She never spoke another word I only beat her more Until the ground around me Within her blood did flow. Go down, go down, you Knoxville girl With the dark and roving eyes Go down, go down, you Knoxville girl You can never be my bride. I took her by her golden curls And I drug her 'round and 'round Throwing her into the river That flows through Knoxville town Go down, go down, you Knoxville girl With the dark and roving eyes Go down, go down, you Knoxville girl You can never be my bride. Go down, go down, you Knoxville girl With the dark and roving eyes Go down, go down, you Knoxville girl You can never be my bride.
