    About :

    One fair girl with fine yellow hair
    Wild flower of the west country
    Left one night for a stormy ride
    On a winding road to the east

    One fair girl at the Birmingham Mill
    For a dollar and a half times three
    See the spinning wheels turn, she is young but she'll learn
    With her slender white hands to weave

    Twelve smoke stacks in a row row row
    And a girl of five times three
    See the mill boss patrol, hear the factory bells toll
    And the girls look as sad as can be
    And she cried for her home country

    One little spark set a light to a flame
    And the fire climbed through to the east
    And the roof it crashed and the girls all dashed
    And they all cried "oh god please"
    And she crawled on her hands and her knees

    Hey Folks

    This is a old folk song I learned recently called "The Birminham Mill"

    "The Birmingham Mill"

    At the Birmingham Mill where the wild flowers grow
    Round the grave of the girl so fair
    See the lilly bells bloom round her cold marble tomb
    And they come in the spring of the year

    One fair girl with fine yellow hair
    Wild flower of the west country
    May she rest well amoungst the wold lilly bells
    In her cold marble tomb in the east.

    At the Birmingham Mill where the wild flowers grow
    Round the grave of the girl so fair
    See the lilly bells bloom round her cold marble tomb
    And they come in the spring of the year
