Dame Durdan |
Dame Durdan kept five servant maids to carry the milking pail |
She also kept five labouring men to use the spade and flail |
'Twas Moll and Bet and Doll and Kit |
And Dolly to drag her tail |
'Twas Tom and Dick and Joe and Jack |
And Humphrey with his flail |
Then Tom kissed Molly and Dick kissed Betty |
And Joe kissed Dolly and Jack kissed Kitty |
And Humphrey with his flail |
And Kitty she was a charming girl |
To carry the milking pail |
Dame Durdan in the morn so soon she did begin to call |
To rouse her servants, maids and men, she did begin to bawl |
'Twas on the morn of Valentine when birds begin to prate |
Dame Durdan and her maids and men they all together meet |
'Twas Moll and Bet and Doll and Kit |
And Dolly to drag her tail |
'Twas Tom and Dick and Joe and Jack |
And Humphrey with his flail |
Then Tom kissed Molly and Dick kissed Betty |
And Joe kissed Dolly and Jack kissed Kitty |
And Humphrey with his flail |
Kiss Dorothy Draggletail |
And Kitty she was a charming girl |
To carry the milking pail |
