The Ballad Of Minnie Dean
Minnie was a mother to a hundred or more
In winton town
Red faced mamas coming knocking on your door
A whole ten pounds
Winter in the south makes the heart beat slow
But hearts beat slow in the garden below
Then the 3 went missing and the men start digging
In the ground the ground
Men start digging in the ground, 3 found
Bring poor Minnie downtown
But a woman won't hang in Winton town
Hundreds in the room when Minnie stood trial
Many more outside
Minnie you're accused of a serious crime
Infanticide
The crowd all cheered as the gavel rang
But have mercy on the soul on the women who hangs
Then they carried her away and the crowd all followed her down down
The crowd all followed her down, 3 found
Everybody gathered round
To see a woman hang in winton town
Oh see a woman hang in winton town
In winton town
Red faced mamas coming knocking on your door
A whole ten pounds
Winter in the south makes the heart beat slow
But hearts beat slow in the garden below
Then the 3 went missing and the men start digging
In the ground the ground
Men start digging in the ground, 3 found
Bring poor Minnie downtown
But a woman won't hang in Winton town
Hundreds in the room when Minnie stood trial
Many more outside
Minnie you're accused of a serious crime
Infanticide
The crowd all cheered as the gavel rang
But have mercy on the soul on the women who hangs
Then they carried her away and the crowd all followed her down down
The crowd all followed her down, 3 found
Everybody gathered round
To see a woman hang in winton town
Oh see a woman hang in winton town
