Lyrics: Margaret, sitting in her high hall chair, Combin' her long, yellow hair, She saw Sweet William and his new maid bride Runnin' up the road so near She threw down her ivory comb, Threw back her long yellow hair, Said, "I'll go down and bid him farewell, And nevermore go there." It was late in the night, They were fast asleep, Little Margaret appeared all dressed in white, A-standing at their bed-feet. Said "How do you like your snow-white pillow, How do you like your sheet? How do you like that pretty fair maid who lays in your arms asleep?" "Well do I like my snow-white pillow, Well do I like my sheet, Much better that I like that pretty fair maid who stands at my bed-feet." Called his servant man to go, Saddled the dapple roan, And he went to Margaret's house that night, And he knocked on the door alone. Sayin' "Is Lady Margaret in her room, Is she in the hall?" "Little Margaret's in the coal-black coffin, With her face turned toward the wall." Unfold, unfold them snow white robes, Be they ever so fine, "I wanna kiss those red ruby lips I know they'll never touch mine." Three times he kissed her cold white breast, Twice he kissed her cheek, And once he kissed her cold corpse lips, And he fell in her arms asleep. Fell in her arms asleep. #TraditionalFolk #SouthernGothic #MurderBallad
