lirik lagu the womenfolk – old maid’s lament
[verse 1: one vocalist]
i had a sister sally
she was younger than i am
had so many sweethearts
she had to deny them
as for my own part
i never had many
if you only knew my heart
i’d be thankful for any
[chorus: one vocalist and all]
come a landsman, a pinsman
a tinker or a tailor
fiddler or a dancer
a plow boy or a sailor
gentle man or poor man
a fool or a witty
don’t you let me die an old maid
but take me out of pity
[verse 2: one vocalist]
i had a sister susan
she was ugly and ill~shapen
before she was sixteen years old
she was taken
before she was eighteen
a son and a daughter
now here i am, nine and twenty
and i’ve never had an offer
[chorus: one vocalist and all]
come a landsman, a pinsman
a tinker or a tailor
fiddler or a dancer
a plow boy or a sailor
gentle man or poor man
a fool or a witty
don’t you let me die an old maid
but take me out of pity
[verse 3]
i never shall be scoldin’
i never shall be jealous
my husband will have money
to go to the ale house
while he’s there a~spendin’
i’ll be home a~savin’
and i leave it to the world
if i am not worth havin’
[chorus: one vocalist and all]
come a landsman, a pinsman
a tinker or a tailor
fiddler or a dancer
a plow boy or a sailor
gentle man or poor man
a fool or a witty
don’t you let me die an old maid
please take me out of pity
