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...
