Lyrics

There was a woman in our town and in our town did dwell

She loved her husband dearly but another man twice as well

And sing Folder oh la la la ...

She went down to the doctor to see if she could find

Anything in the whole world to make her old man blind

And sing Folder oh la la la ...

Oh take him sixteen marrowbones and make him eat them all

And when he's finished he'll be so blind that he won't see you at all

And sing Folder oh la la la ...

So the doctor he wrote a letter and he sealed it with his hand

And he sent it up to the old man to make him understand

And sing Folder oh la la la ...

But the old man being a crafty bugger, he knew it all before

He ate them up and he says : 'Me dear, I can't see you at all'

And sing Folder oh la la la ...

Says he : 'I'll go to the river and there meself I'll drown'

Says she : 'I'll walk along with you to see that you don't fall down'

And sing Folder oh la la la ...

They walked along together till they come to the river's brim

So gently there she's kissed him and she crept away behind

And sing Folder oh la la la ...

She ran and she ran behind him to try to push him in

But the old man heard and he jumped aside and she went tumbling in

And sing Folder oh la la la ...

So loudly she did holler and loud for mercy call

But the old man says : 'I am so blind, I can't see you at all'

And sing Folder oh la la la ...

She swam and she swam and she swam around till she came to the further brim

But the old man got the barge pole and he pushed her further in

And sing Folder oh la la la ...

Oh it may take sixteen marrowbones to make your old man blind

But if you want to murder him you must creep up close behind

And sing Folder oh la la la ...
