There Is No Rose Of Such Virtue |
A soul cake, a soul cake, |
Please, good missus, a soul cake, |
An apple, a pear, a plum or a cherry, |
Any good thing to make us all merry. |
A soul cake, a soul cake, |
Please, good missus, a soul cake, |
One for Peter, two for Paul, |
And three for Him that made us all. |
God bless the master of this house |
And the mistress also, |
And all the little children |
That round your table grow; |
The cattle in your stable, |
The dogs at your front door, |
And all that dwell within your gates |
We’ll wish you ten times more. |
A soul cake, a soul cake: |
Go down into the cellar |
And see what you can fi nd; |
If the barrels are not empty |
We’ll hope that you’ll be kind; |
We’ll hope that you’ll be kind |
With your apple and your pear, |
And we’ll come no more a-soulin' |
Till Christmas time next year. |
A soul cake, a soul cake: |
The streets are very dirty, |
Me shoes are very thin, |
I have a little pocket |
To put a penny in; |
If you haven’t got a penny |
A ha’penny will do; |
If you haven’t got a ha’penny |
God bless you. |
A soul cake, a soul cake: |
