As I was a-walking to Derry Down Fair
In my bright scarlet coat and
everything rare
Enough to entice all the maidens that day
When they set their eyes on
young Rambleaway
Rambleaway, rambleaway
When they set their eyes on young
Rambleaway
The very first steps I took into the fair
I spied lovely Nancy a-combing
her hair
I gave her the wink and she rolled her dark eye
Says I to myself, I'll be there
by and by
There by and by, there by and by
Says I to myself, I'll be there by and
by
As we were a-walking that night after dark
I took lovely Nancy to be my
sweetheart
I gave her three doubles and fair length and share
And I told her I'd ramble,
but I didn't know where
Didn't know where, didn't know where
And I told her I'd ramble,
but I didn't know where
My mum and my dad, they are both gone from home
But when
they return I will sit down and moan
I'll tell them my story and leave them to say
No
doubt she's been playing with young Rambleaway
Rambleaway, rambleaway
No doubt she's been
playing with young Rambleaway
Twenty-four weeks, they were over and past
This pretty
young Nancy did sicken at last
Her gowns wouldn't meet nor her apron strings stay
And she
longed for the sight of young Rambleaway
Rambleaway, Rambleaway
She longed for the sight
of young Rambleaway
Then six months had past and three more had come
This pretty
young Nancy gave birth to a son
She hugged him, she kissed him, and to him did say
Your
pappy, my darling, hae rambled away
Rambled away, rambled away
Your pappy, my darling, hae
rambled away
Now silks and blue velvet my baby shall wear
And a bunch of blue
ribbons to tie in his hair
And the bells they will ring and sweet music will play
On the
night that I wed to young Rambleaway
Rambleaway, rambleaway
On the night that I wed with
young Rambleaway
