the highwaymen (folk) - the old maid's song كلمات الأغنية

[intro]
in case everybody doesn’t know everybody else
we can remedy that a little bit
over there is chan daniels
and seated on the stool here is our banjoist and bass singer, mr. steve b_tts
right here beside me is bobby burnett
and over across the room there is dave fisher
i’m gil robbins, our father
and we’ve got a special guest here tonight who comes to us from connecticut
and ran into her quite unexpectedly down in the village
decided we had to sing with her
her name is mayo muerer
we’d like to sing a song with her

[verse 1]
i have a sister, sally, who’s younger than i am
had so many sweethearts, she had to deny them
but as for my part, i’d not had many
and if you knew my heart, i’d be grateful for any

[chorus]
come a landsman, a tinsman, a tinker or a tailor
fiddler or a dancer, a ploughboy or a sailor
rich man, a poor man, a fool or a witty
don’t you let me die an old maid, but take me out of pity
[verse 2]
i have a sister sarah who’s ugly and misshapen
before she was sixteen she was taken
before she was eighteen, a son and a daughter
here am at six and forty, and i haven’t had an offer

[verse 3]
i never will be scolding, and i never would be jealous
my husband would have money to go on to the alehouse
while he’s there spendin’, i’d be at home a_savin’
i leave it to you all, doncha think i’m worth havin’?
