American traditional that inolves the recurrent theme of a man courting a girl, her parent's don't approve, they run off together in the valley, she plunges a knife into herself and dies, then the courter is so distraught that he plunges a knife into himself and dies.
[Verse One]
Come pretty young girls give me your attention
To these few lines I’ve tried to write
About a man who I won’t mention
Who courted of his charming bride - Licensing
