She went to market her eggs for to sell | A |
She went to market all on a market day | B |
And she fell asleep on the king's highway | B |

There came by a pedlar whose name was Stout | C |
He cut her petticoats all round about | C |
He cut her petticoats up to the knees | D |
Which made the old woman to shiver and freeze | D |

When this little woman first did wake | E |
She began to shiver and she began to shake | E |

Oh deary deary me this is none of I | F |

But if it be I as I do hope it be | G |
I've a little dog at home and he'll know me | G |
If it be I he'll wag his little tail | H |

Home went the little woman all in the dark | I |
Up got the little dog and he began to bark | I |
He began to bark so she began to cry | F |
Oh deary deary me this is none of I | F |
