As I came home the other night
my darling wife to see
I seen a horse within the sty
where my old horse should be
I called my wife and said to her
You're very untrue to me
or what horse is that within the sty
Where my old horse should be
Oh you're drunk, your drunk" She said
"and still you cannot see"
"that's a little barrow-pig
your mother sent to me"
well i have travelled round
a hundred miles or more
and a saddle on a barrow-pig
I've never seen before
Oh, as I came home the other night
my darling wife to see
I seen a stick behind the door
where my old stick should be
I called my wife and said to her
You're very untrue to me,
or what stick is that behind the door
where my old stick should be?
Oh you're drunk, your drunk" she said
and still you cannot see"
That's a little podge stick (?)
well i have travelled round
a hundred miles or more
and a silver mounted podge stick (?)
I've never seen before.
As I came home the other night
my darling wife to see
I seen a head within the bed
where my old should be
I called my wife and said to her
You're very untrue to me
or what head is that within the bed
where my old head should be?
Oh you're drunk, your drunk, she said
and still you cannot see
that's your poor old mother
who came to visit me
Well I have travelled round
for a hundred miles or more
and whiskers on a woman
I never seen before.
As I came home the other night
my darling wife to see
I seen a coat within the bed
where my old coat should be
I called my wife and said to her
You're very untrue to me
or what coat is that in the bed
where my old coat should be
Oh you're drunk, your drunk, she said
and still you cannot see
that's a woollen blanket
your mother sent to me
Well I have travelled round
for a hundred miles or more
and buttons on a blanket
I never seen before.
No Sir (Oh No John!)
Tell will you, tell me truly
Tell me why you scorn me so
Tell me why when e'er I ask you
Why you always answer no?
No sir, no sir, no sir
No sir,
No sir, no sir, no sir, no
My father was a Spanish merchant
and before he went to sea
told me to be sure to answer
no to all you said to me
No sir, no sir, no sir
No sir,
No sir, no sir, no sir, no
If when walking in the garden
plucking flowers all wet with dew
Tell me would you be offended,
if I walked and talked to you?
No sir, no sir, no sir
No sir,
No sir, no sir, no sir, no
If when walking in the garden,
I should ask you to be mine.
And should tell you that I loved you
Would you then my heart decline?
No sir, no sir, no sir
No sir,
No sir, no sir, no sir, no
