Wind And Rain Lyrics - Gillian Welch

There were two sisters of county Clair 

Oh, the wind and rain 

One was dark and the other was fair 

Oh, the dreadful wind and rain 

And they both had a love of the miller's son 

Oh, the wind and rain 

But he was fond of the fairer one 

Oh, the dreadful wind and rain 

So she pushed her into the river to drown 

Oh, the wind and rain 

And watched her as she floated down 

Oh, the dreadful wind and rain 

And she floated till she came to the miller's pond 

Oh, the wind and the rain 

Dead on the water like a golden swan 

Oh, the dreadful wind and rain

As she came to rest on the riverside 

Oh, the wind and the rain 

And her bones were washed by the rolling tide 

Oh, the dreadful wind and rain 

And along the road came a fiddler fair 

Oh, the wind and rain 

And found her bones just a lying there, cried 

Oh, the dreadful wind and rain 

So he made a fiddle peg of her long finger bone 

Oh, the wind and the rain 

He a made a fiddle peg of her long finger bone, crying 

Oh, the dreadful wind and rain 

And he strung his fiddle bow with her long yeller hair 

Oh, the wind and the rain 

He strung his fiddle bow with her long yeller hair, cried 

Oh, the dreadful wind and rain

And he made a fiddle, fiddle of her breast bone 

Oh, the wind and rain 

He made a fiddle, fiddle of her breast bone, cried 

Oh, the dreadful wind and rain 

But the only tune that the fiddle could play was 

Oh, the wind and rain 

The only tune that the fiddle would play was 

Oh, the dreadful wind and rain
