"Omie Wise" is an awful tragic Appalachian-y song by Doug Wallin.

On the People Take Warning! three CD collection of "Murder Ballads & Disaster Songs, 1913-1938", there's a version of the track called "Naomi Wise" by Clarence Ashley. Doc Watson has also often performed a version under the title "Little Omie Wise", and Bob Dylan used to sing it in his earlier days. All the versions are based on the murder of Naomi Wise by Jonathan Lewis in Deep River, North Carolina in 1808; the story of which, along with a ballad version called "Poor Naomi", was printed in the Greensboro "Patriot" in April 1874.
