歌词
I had a sister Sally she was younger than I am
Had so many sweethearts she had to deny them
But as for sister Sarah you know she hasn't many
And if you knew her heart she'd be grateful for any
Come a landsman a pinsman a tinker or a tailor
Doctor a lawyer soldier a sailor
Rich man a poor man a fool or a witty
Don't let her die an old maid but take her out of pity
We had a sister Sally she was ugly and shiven
But I'm she was sixteen years old she was taken
The time she was eighteen a son and a daughter
Sarah's almost twenty-nine never had an offer
Come a landsman a kinsman a tinker a tailor
Doctor a lawyer soldier a sailor
Rich man a poor man a fool or a witty
Don't let her die an old maid but take her out of pity
She never would be scoldin' she never would be jealous
Her would have money to sbend the alehouse
He was there a spendin' she'd be home a savin'
And I leave it up to you if she is not worth havin'
Come a landsman a pinsman a tinker or a tailor
Doctor a lawyer soldier a sailor
Rich man a poor man a fool or a witty
Don't let her die an old maid but take her out of pity
Don't let her die an old maid but take her out of pity
