MILLER'S MILL POND


two lovers went down to millers mill pond
(oh the wind and the rain)
and they walked and they talked by the millers mill pond
(try to catch the wind and the rain)

billy said "sweet mary will you marry me?"
(oh the wind and the rain)
and she said "oh no, that will never be"
(try to catch the wind and the rain)

so he knocked her in the head and he threw her in the ditch
(oh the wind and the rain)
and he said "take that you uncompromising bitch"
(try to catch the wind and the rain)

then along down the road came a fiddling fool
(oh the wind and the rain)
and he didn't have a fiddle and he didn't have a bow
(try to catch the wind and the rain)

so he made a little fiddle from her breast bone
(oh the wind and the rain)
and it played a little song, melt a heart of stone
(try to catch the wind and the rain)

and he made the bow from her long yellow hair
(oh the wind and the rain)
and he made the pegs from her pearly finger bones
(try to catch the wind and the rain)

and the only song the little fiddle ever played
(oh the wind and the rain)
the only song the little fiddle ever played
(try to catch the wind and the rain)
