DOWN IN THE VALLEY

The first time I met her she was all dressed in white,
All in white, all in white, My God! he cut was tight,
Down in the valley where she followed me.

The next time I met her she was all dressed in brown,
All in brown, all in brown, I took her knickers down,
Down in the valley where she followed me.

The next time I met her she was all dressed in green,
All in green, all in green, I filled soup tureen,
Down in the valley where she followed me.

The next time I saw her she was all dressed in fawn,
All in fawn, all in fawn, two little bastards born,
Down in the valley where she followed me.

The next time I saw her she was all dressed in red,
All in red, all in red, two little bastards dead,
Down in the valley where she followed me.

The next time I saw her she was all dressed in back,
All in black, all in black, boards nailed across her crack,
Down in the valley where she followed me.
