Springfield Mountain - Woody Guthrie

On Springfield Mountain there did dwell

A lovely youth I knowed him well

Too roo de nay, too roo de noo

This lovely youth one day did go

Down to the meadom for to mow

Too roo de nay, too roo de noo

He scarce had mowed quite round the field

When a crul serpent bit his heel

Too roo de nay, too roo de noo

They took him home to molly dear

Which made him feel so very gueer

Too roo de nay, too roo de noo

Now Molly had two ruby lips

With which the poison she did sip

Too roo de nay, too roo de noo

Now Molly had a rotting tooth

And so the poison killed them both
