He went to his comrade and this he did say: 'Twenty-four ladies I saw yesterday, And one of them has my poor heart won, And if I can't have her I'm surely undone' etc. Early next morning the drummer arose And dressed himself up in a suit of fine clothes. A watch in each pocket, a sword in his hand He went to the lady, she stepped on the strand. etc. 'Oh say, little drummer, pray what do you mean? My father's a man of great honor and means I'm his own duly daughter that ever can be! Don't you think, little drummer, you're making too free?' etc. The drummer got up for to bid her farewell 'I'll soon send my soul to Heaven or Hell! You've wounded my heart and you've left me no cure Inside of five minutes I'll die at your door!' etc. 'Oh, we'll go to the stable and saddle a horse To London we'll ride, and married we'll be! And what will we say when the deed it is done? I'll tell them that you won me with a roll of your drum .' etc. Recorded by Stekert, Songs of a New York Lumberjack, Folkways @soldier @courtship filename[ DRUMLASS RG ===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Dummy Line, Dump The Bosses Off Your Back, Dunderbeck, Durham Lockout, Dutchman, Dwelling In Beulah Land, Dying Airman, Dying British Sergeant, Dying Californian, Dying Hobo, Dying Pilot, Early One Morning, East Virginia, Eastern Wind, Eat Berthas Mussels, Eat Worms, Ebenezer, Ecuador Native Anthem Text, Eddystone Light, Eden Was Just Like This, Edmund Fitzgerald, Edmund Of The Hill Ned Of The Hill, Edward Ballad, Edward In The Lowlands, Egypt Anthem Text, Egyptian Ella, Eileen Aroon, El Paso, Elanoy, Election Song, Elements, Eleven Thirds, Elf Call, Elsie Marley, Emilys Animals, England Has Taken Me, Enniskillen Dragoons, Eppie Morrie, Erie Canal, Erie Canal Mule Named Sal, Erin Go Bragh, Eringobragh, Erins Green Shore, Erzherzog Johann Jodler Wo I Geh Und Steh, Escape Of Old John Webb, Essay In Creative Specification, Essiquibo River, Estonia Native Anthem Text, Eternal Doom, Ethiopia Anthem Text, Other Unknown song Lyrics 99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall Lyrics A Bird in a Gilded Cage Lyrics A Fenian Song Lyrics A Fool Such As I Lyrics A Friend Like You Lyrics A Hero of the Wrong War Lyrics A Horse Named Bill Lyrics A Hundred Years from Now Lyrics A Kangaroo Sat on an Oak Lyrics A Little Bit of Solitude Lyrics A Living Wage Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Unknown Prophets Lyrics Unleashed Lyrics Unleashed Power Lyrics Unlimited Nation Lyrics Unlimited Sound Lyrics UNLOCO Lyrics Unlord Lyrics UNLV Lyrics Unni Wilhelmsen Lyrics Uno Svenningsson Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
