Down in the valley, the valley so low
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow
Hear the blow, hear the wind blow
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow
Roses love sunshine, violets love dew
Angels in heaven know I love you
If you don't love me, love who you please
Put your arms 'round me, give my heart ease
Give my heart ease, love, give my heart ease
Put your arms 'round me, give my heart ease
Write me a letter, send it by mail
Send it in care of the Birmingham jail
Birmingham jail, love, Birmingham jail
Send it in care of the Birmingham jail
Build me a castle forty feet high
So I can see her as she rides by
As she rides by, love, as she rides by
So I can see her as she rides by
Down in the valley, the valley so low
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow
Down in the valley, the valley so low
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow
Hear the blow, hear the wind blow
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow
Roses love sunshine, violets love dew
Angels in heaven know I love you
If you don't love me, love who you please
Put your arms 'round me, give my heart ease
Give my heart ease, love, give my heart ease
Put your arms 'round me, give my heart ease
Write me a letter, send it by mail
Send it in care of the Birmingham jail
Birmingham jail, love, Birmingham jail
Send it in care of the Birmingham jail
Build me a castle forty feet high
So I can see her as she rides by
As she rides by, love, as she rides by
So I can see her as she rides by
Down in the valley, the valley so low
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow
