old maid's song - pete seeger lyrics

Loading...

i had a sister sally, she was younger than i am
she had so many sweethearts, she had to deny them;
but as for my own part i’ve never had any
if you all knew my heart, i’d be thankful for any

come a landsman, a pinsman, a tinker or a tailor
a fiddler, or a dancer, a ploughboy, or a sailor
a gentleman, a poor man, a fool or a witty
don’t you let me die an old maid but take me out of pity

i had a sister susan, was ugly and misshapen
before she was sixteen years old she was taken
before she was eighteen, a son and a daughter
here am i six and twenty and never an offer

come a landsman, a pinsman, a tinker or a tailor
a fiddler, or a dancer, a ploughboy, or a sailor
a gentleman, a poor man, a fool or a witty
don’t you let me die an old maid but take me out of pity
