Down de moundain o'er de valleyI
Troo de village he ish goneB

And I'll give a thousand shinersA
If you'll take me to a townB
Where no one will molest usA
Till we find our way to LonB
Here der Breitmann ent de sentenceA
Ash he gry out shortly doneB
-
And as for this fair ladyD
To whom I would be boundD
Sait Milord we'll have a weddingK
Before we reach the groundD
To escape her father's angerC
We fled to live in peaceA
But she's relatives in LondonB
And they have the policeA

Or pelieve id's only fonB
Boot dere's woonder dings has hoppentD
Fery oft in Luft ballonB
