I Will Not Wear The Willow

I will not wear the willow

Though my love is gone

There's a cool corner of the pillow

I will lay my head on

I will lay my head on

I will not grieve in sorrow

For what has come to pass

Turn my thoughts to tomorrow

I will not cast the glass

I will not cast the glass

And I will not tremble

With the women in black

He's gone to the devil

And he won't be coming back

Some said he took the shilling

Some said he took to the sea

Some said there once was a killing

And the killer was he

And the killer was he

I will not wear the willow

I will not lower my eyes

Though it's not on my pillow

I know where he lies

I know where he lies

And I will not tremble

With the women in black

He's gone to the devil

And he won't be, he won't be coming back

He won't be coming back...
