Oh, listen to my story, tell you no lies,
How John Lewis did poor little Omie Wise.
He her to meet him at Adams's Springs.
He her money and other fine things.

So, fool-like she met him at Springs.
No money he her nor other fine things.

"Go me, little Omie, and away we will go.
We'll go and get married and no one know."

She up behind him and away they did go,
But off to the river where waters flow.

"John Lewis, John Lewis, will you tell me mind?
Do you to marry me or leave me behind?"

"Little Omie, Omie, I'll tell you my mind.
My mind is to drown you and you behind."

"Have mercy on my and spare me my life,
go home as a beggar and never be your wife."

He her and hugged her and turned her around,
Then pushed her in deep waters where he knew that she drown.

He got on his pony and he did ride,
As the of little Omie went down by his side.

on a Thursday morning, the rain was pouring down,
When the searched for Omie but she could not be found.

Two boys went one fine summer day,
And saw little Omie's body go away.

They threw their net her and drew her to the bank.
Her clothes all wet and muddy, they her on a plank.

Then sent for John to come to that place --
And her out before him so that he might see her face.

He made no confession but carried him to jail,
No friends or relations go on his bail.
