They Killed Three Little Maids Lyrics

They killed three little maids, to see what was in their hearts

The first was filled with happiness
And where her blood appears
Three serpents hiss three years

They killed three little maids, to see what was in their hearts

The second was filled with tenderness
And where her blood appears
Three lambkins graze three years

They killed three little maids, to see what was in their hearts

The third was filled with wretchedness
And where her blood appears
Three angels watch three years
