This winter's weather it waxeth cold	A
And frost it freezeth on every hill	B
And Boreas blows his blast so bold	A
That all our cattle are like to spill	B
Bell my wife she loves no strife	C
She said unto me quietlye	D
Rise up and save cow Crumbock's life	C
Man put thine old cloak about thee	E
	-
He O Bell my wife why dost thou flyte	A
Thou kens my cloak is very thin	F
It is so bare and over worn	G
A crick egrave thereon cannot renn	H
Then I'll no longer borrow nor lend	A
For once I'll new apparell'd be	E
To morrow I'll to town and spend	A
For I'll have a new cloak about me	E
	-
She Cow Crumbock is a very good cow	I
She has been always true to the pail	J
She has helped us to butter and cheese I trow	K
And other things she will not fail	J
I would be loth to see her pine	L
Good husband counsel take of me	E
It is not for us to go so fine	L
Man take thine old cloak about thee	E
	-
He My cloak it was a very good cloak	M
It hath been always true to the wear	N
But now it is not worth a groat	A
I have had it four and forty year'	N
Sometime it was of cloth in grain	O
'Tis now but a sigh clout as you may see	E
It will neither hold out wind nor rain	O
And I'll have a new cloak about me	E
	-
She It is four and forty years ago	K
Sine the one of us the other did ken	H
And we have had betwixt us two	P
Of children either nine or ten	H
We have brought them up to women and men	H
In the fear of God I trow they be	E
And why wilt thou thyself misken	H
Man take thine old cloak about thee	E
	-
He O Bell my wife why dost thou flyte	A
Now is now and then was then	H
Seek now all the world throughout	A
Thou kens not clowns from gentlemen	H
They are clad in black green yellow and blue	P
So far above their own degree	E
Once in my life I'll take a view	P
For I'll have a new cloak about me	E
	-
She King Stephen was a worthy peer	N
His breeches cost him but a crown	H
He held them sixpence all too dear	N
Therefore he called the tailor 'lown '	-
He was a king and wore the crown	H
And thou'se but of a low degree	E
It 's pride that puts this country down	H
Man take thy old cloak about thee	E
	-
He Bell my wife she loves not strife	C
Yet she will lead me if she can	H
And to maintain an easy life	C
I oft must yield though I'm good man	H
It 's not for a man with a woman to threap	Q
Unless he first give o'er the plea	E
As we began so will we keep	Q
And I'll take my old cloak about me	E
