This is the version I sing

In yonder city there did dwell
A butchers boy,I loved him well
He courted me m life away
And then with me no more would stay

She went upstairs to make her bed
And not one word to her mother said
Her mother she went upstairs too
Saying daughter daughter what troubles you

Oh mother mother I cannot tel
That butchers boy I love so well
He courted me my life away
And now at home he will not stay

There is a place in London town
Where the butchers boy goes and sits down
He takes a strange girl on his knee
And tells to her what he wont tell me

Her father came home from his work
Saying where is my daughter she seems so hurt
He went upstairs to give her hope
And found her hanging from a rope

He took a knife and cut her down
And in her bosom these words found
Go dig my grave both wide and deep
Place a marble slab at my head and feet

He dug her grave both wide and deep
A marble slab at her head and feet
And on the coffin placed a snow white dove
To warn the world that she died for love
