Verse 2
C
Come all you thoughtless young men,
a -warnin' take by me,
To think on my unhappy flage,
to be hanged upon a tree.
My name is William Cawdor,
to you I do declare,
I courted Maria Martin,
most beautiful and fair.
I promised I would marry her
upon a certain day
Instead of that I was resolved
to take her life away

her mind being sore abreast

Neither at night, nor yet by day,

Her daughter she lay murdered,

beneath the red -conned floor

My trial was hard, I could not stand,
C
My sorrowful heart let slide.

When her dear voice was

brought to prove

Which fear set my heart right,
C

Her aged father standing by,
C
likewise his loving wife,
D

And in her beaver hair she dove,
D

she scarcely could keep life.
Adieu, adieu, my loving friends,
my glass is almost drunk.
On Monday next will be my last,
when I am to be hung.
So all young men who do pass by
with pity look on me
For madrine of that young girl
I was hung upon a tree
You
