Factory Girl

歌詞

As I went out walking One fine summer morning The birds in the bushes Did whistle and sing The lads and the lassies In couples were courting Going back to the factory Their work to begin I spied one among them She was fairer than most Her cheeks like the red rose That blooms in the spring Her hair like the lily Thet grows in yon valley She was only a hard working Factory Girl I steps up aside her more closely to feel her She says my young man Don't stare me so She said I've got gold in my pocket And silver as well No more will I answer That factory call Now the years have all passed From the days of our youth Our home is now teeming With children at play Life goes on in the village You can still hear the whistle Hey there goes the lad With his factory girl
