	When Amfirst I came to CLouisGville
 Some Fpleasure there to Amfind
 A Cdamsel Fthere from LexingGton
 Was Fpleasing to my Ammind
 Her Frosy cheeks, her ruby Glips
 Like Amarrows pierced my breast
 And the name she bore was CFloGra
 The CLily Of The AmWest
 I courted lovely Flora
 Some pleasure there to find
 She turned unto another man
 Which sore distressed my mind
 She robbed me of my liberty
 Deprived me of my rest
 Still I love my faithless Flora
 The Lily Of The West
 Down in yonder shady grove
 A man of lowly breed
 Conversing with my Flora there
 It seemed so strange to me
 And the answer that she gave to him
 It sure did me oppress
 I was betrayed by Flora
 The Lily Of The West
 I stepped up to my rival
 My dagger in my hand
 I grabbed him by the collar and
 I boldly made him stand
 Being mad to desperation
 I pierced him in the breast
 All for my lovely Flora
 The Lily Of The West
 I had to stand my trial
 I had to make my plea
 They placed me in the criminal box
 And then commenced on me
 Although she swore my life away
 Deprived me of my rest
 And I (still) love my faithless Flora
 The Lily Of The West
