I. |
—Barnes, Surrey (A. B. Gomme).
There stands a lady on the mountain,
Who she is I do not know;
All she wants is gold and silver,
All she wants is a nice young man.
Choose one, choose two, choose the fairest one of the two.
The fairest one that I can see,
Is pretty------, walk with me.
—Barnes, Surrey (A. B. Gomme).
There lives a lady on the mountain, Who she is I do not know; All she wants is gold and silver, All she wants is a nice young man.
Choose one, choose two, Choose the fairest of the few.
Now you're married I wish you joy,
Father and mother you must obey;
Love one another like sister and brother,
And pray, young couple, come kiss one another.
—Colchester (Miss G. M. Frances).
Here stands a lady on a mountain, Who she is I do not know; All she wants is gold and silver, All she wants is a nice young man. |
