There were twa sisters, side by side |
|
Do I dum, and do I dae |
|
There were twa sisters, side by side |
|
All the boys are bad for me |
|
There were twa sisters, side by side |
|
The eldest wore young Johnny's kite |
|
Hope you do, undo, my love, |
|
Be true to me |
|
Old Johnny, bought a golden ring |
|
Do I dum, and do I dae |
|
Johnny bought the youngest a golden ring |
|
All the boys have been for me(?) |
|
Johnny bought the youngest a golden ring |
|
Didn't get the sisters a dreaded thing |
|
Hope you do, undo, my love, |
|
Be true to me |
|
As they went walking by the stony brim |
|
Do I dum, and do I dae |
|
As they went walking by the stony brim |
|
All the boys are bad for me |
|
As they went walking by the stony brim |
|
The elders pushed their sister in |
|
Hope you do, undo, my love, |
|
Be true to me |
|
Oh, sister, sister, gimme your hand |
|
Do I dum, and do I dae |
|
Sister, sister, gimme your hand |
|
All the boys are bad for me |
|
Sister, I know, gimme your hand |
|
But I'll take Johnny and all his land |
|
Hope you do, undo, my love, |
|
Be true to me |
|
Oh, the way she sunk and the way she swum |
|
Do I dum, and do I dae |
|
Oh, the way she sunk and the way she smile |
|
All the boys are bad for me |
|
The way she sunk and the way she smile |
|
Till she come to the millers dump |
|
Hope you do, undo, my love, |
|
Be true to me |
|
That miller, he took her golden ring |
|
Do I dum, and do I dae |
|
That miller, he took her golden ring |
|
All the boys are bad for me |
|
The melody took her golden ring |
|
Then he pushed her in again |
|
Hope you do, undo, my love, |
|
Be true to me |
