As he was a-traveling the North Country
Near to Kirby Stephen
he happened for to be
As he was a-walking up and down the street
A pretty little
buy-a-broom he chanced for to meet
And she was right, he was tight
Every girl
shall have her way
It was the lish young buy-a-broom
That led him
astray
She kindly then invited him to go along the way
'Yes', it was the answer to
her that he did say
Him and his music walking down the street
And her with her tambourine
beating hands and feet
He treated her to a brandy, he treated her to beer
He kissed
her and he cuddled her and called her his dear
She treated him to whiskey, she treated him to
rum
And said, "My gay young fellow, you can play my little drum"
Now straightway out
to Kendal they steered, her and him
Over yon green mountain, the weather it was grim
They
each had a bottle filled up to the top
And whenever they were feeling dry, they took a little
drop
With night a-coming on, good lodgings they did find
Eatables of all sorts and
plenty of good wine
Good bed and blankets just for the two
And he rolled her in his arms,
my boys, and wouldn't you do, to?
Then early the next morning they rose to go
away
He called to the landlord to see what was to pay
He said fourteen and sixpence, just
for you two
And a sovereign on the table his darling she threw
And when they got to
Kendal, the weather it was fine
They'd velvet caps with tassels on, fine buckles they did
shine
They each had a ribbon hanging down their backs
And she had nineteen golden
sovereigns, his darling, in her sack
The reason that they parted, I mean for you to
hear
She wanted him to go to France for to be her dear
But him not being willing to cross
the stormy sea
Said "Good luck to my darling, wherever she may be"
