On Springfield |
|
Mountain there did dwell |
|
A lovely youth |
|
I knowed him well. |
|
Too roo de nay, too roo de noo |
|
This lovely youth one day did go |
|
Down to the meadom for to mow. |
|
Too roo de nay, too roo de noo. |
|
He scarce had mowed quite round the field |
|
When a crul serpent bit his heel. |
|
Too roo de nay, too roo de noo. |
|
They took him home to molly dear |
|
Which made him feel so very gueer. |
|
Too roo de nay, too roo de noo. |
|
Now Molly had two ruby lips |
|
With which the poison she did sip. |
|
Too roo de nay, too roo de noo. |
|
Now Molly had a rotting tooth, |
|
And so the poison killed them both. |
