The Foggy Foggy Dew |
| When I was a bachelor, I liv’d all alone |
| I worked at the weaver’s trade |
| And the only, only thing that I did that was wrong |
| Was to woo a fair young maid. |
| I wooed her in the wintertime |
| Part of the summer, too |
| And the only, only thing that I did that was wrong |
| Was to keep her from the foggy, foggy dew. |
| One night she knelt close by my side |
| When I was fast asleep. |
| She threw her arms around my neck |
| And she began to weep. |
| She wept, she cried, she tore her hair |
| Ah, me! |
| What could I do? |
| So all night long I held her in my arms |
| Just to keep her from the foggy foggy dew. |
| Again I am a bachelor, I live with my son |
| We work at the weaver’s trade. |
| And every sing time I look into his eyes |
| He reminds me of that fair young maid. |
| He reminds me of the wintertime |
| Part of the summer, too, |
| And the many, many times that I held her in my arms |
| Just to keep her from the foggy, foggy, dew |
