Lyrics

Where are you going to, my pretty fair maid? With your red rosy cheeks and your coal black hair? I'm going a milking, kind so she answered me Rolling in the dew makes the milk maids fair May I come along with you, my pretty fair maid? With your red rosy cheeks and your coal black hair? Why surely you can please yourself, kind so she answered me Rolling in the dew makes the milk maids fair Supposing I should lay you down, my pretty fair maid With your red rosy cheeks and your coal black hair Well surely I'd get up again, kind so she answered me Rolling in the dew makes the milk maids fair Supposing I should dirt you down, my pretty fair maid With your red rosy cheeks and your coal black hair Well surely it would wash again, kind so she answered me Rolling in the dew makes the milk maids fair Supposing you should have a child, my pretty fair maid With your red rosy cheeks and your coal black hair Well surely you would father it, kind so she answered me Rolling in the dew makes the milk maids fair What should we do for a cradle then, my pretty fair maid? With your red rosy cheeks and your coal black hair My father is a basket maker, kind so she answered me Rolling in the dew makes the milk maids fair What should we do for linen then, my pretty fair maid? With your red rosy cheeks and your coal black hair My brother is a linen draper, kind so she answered me Rolling in the dew makes the milk maids fair Supposing I should run away, my pretty fair maid With your red rosy cheeks and your coal black hair May the Devil fetch you back again, kind so she answered me Rolling in the dew makes the milk maids fair
