Just listen to mi stooary ladsA
It's one will mak yo grieveB
It's full ov sich strange incidentsC
Yo hardly can believeB
That lass aw cooarted went one neetD
Aght walkin wi' a swellE
They ovvertuk me on mi wayF
An this is what befellE
-
They tuk me for a finger pooastD
Aw stood soa varry stillG
An daan they set beside meH
Just at top o' Beacon HillG
He sed shoo wor his dearyH
Shoo sed he wor her petD
'Twor an awkward sittiwationI
Which aw shall'nt sooin forgetD
-
Aw stood straight up at top o'th' hillG
They set daan at mi feetD
He hugged her up soa varry cloiseC
Aw thowt ther lips must meetD
He sed he loved wi' all his heartD
Shoo fainted reight awayF
Aw darsn't luk aw darsn't startD
But aw wished misen awayF
-
They tuk me for cH
-
He bathed her temples from the brookJ
He sed shoo wor his lifeK
It made me queer becoss aw'd swornI
To mak that lass mi wifeK
Shoo coom araand an ligg'd her heeadD
Upon his heavin breastD
An then shoo skriked an off aw ranI
But aw cannot tell the restD
-
They tuk me for cH
-
They wedded wor sooin after thatD
Aw thowt mi heart wod braikH
It didn't soa aw'm livin onI
An freeatin for her sakeH
But sweet revenge it coom at lastD
For childer shoo had threeH
An they're all marked wi' a finger pooastD
Whear it didn't owt to beH
-
They tuk me for cH
