While I keep my lonely hallA
You are welcome one and allA
As I sing my little songB
Stay I'll cheer you all day longB
And sow my bachelor buttonsC
And sow my bachelor buttonsC
-
While this world is wild with gleeD
Chime I now my song to theeD
In my bosom lurks no careE
I can loiter everywhereE
And sow my bachelor buttonsC
And sow my bachelor buttonsC
-
Oh dear what a happy lifeF
For the man who has no wifeF
To bind with sore distressesG
And silk and satin dressesH
While he sows his bachelor buttonsC
While he sows his bachelor buttonsC
-
His heart is ever merryD
His way is bright and cheeryD
No peevish baby cryingI
No jealous wife a sighingI
While he sows his bachelor buttonsC
While he sows his bachelor buttonsC
-
Ah praise the God who hath givenJ
A life so much like heavenJ
Quit it Oh no I'll neverK
But live happy foreverK
And sow my bachelor buttonsC
And sow my bachelor buttonsC
