Words:

And who are you, me pretty fair maid?

And who are you, me honey?

And who are you, me pretty fair maid?

And who are you, me honey?

She answered me, quite modestly:

"I'm me mommy's darling."

(Chorus:)

With me too-ry-ay

Fol-de-diddle-day

Di-re fol-de-diddle

Dai-rie oh!

And will you come with me to me mommy's establishment

When the moon is shining clearly?

Will you come with me to me mommy's establishment

When the moon is shining clearly?

I'll open the door and i'll let you in

And divil 'o one would hear us

(Chorus:)

So with me too-ry-ay

Fol-de-diddle-day

Di-re fol-de-diddle

Dai-rie oh!

So i went to her house in the middle of the night

When the moon was shining clearly

I went to her house in the middle of the night

When the moon was shining clearly

For then she opened the door and she let me in

And divil 'o one did hear us

(Chorus:)

So with me too-ry-ay

Fol-de-diddle-day

Di-re fol-de-diddle

Dai-rie oh!

Well, she took me horse by the bridle and the bit

And she led'im to the stable

She took me horse by the bridle and the bit

And she led'im to the stable

Saying: "There's plenty of oats for the soldier's horse,

To drink if he's able."

(Chorus:)

With me too-ry-ay

Fol-de-diddle-day

Di-re fol-de-diddle

Dai-rie oh!

Well, she took me by the lily-white hand

And she led me to the table

She took me by the lily-white hand

And she led me to the table

Saying: "There's plenty of wine for the soldier boy,

To drink if he's able."

(Chorus:)

With me too-ry-ay

Fol-de-diddle-day

Di-re fol-de-diddle

Dai-rie oh!

Well, i got up and i made the bed

I made it nice and aisy

Then i got up and i made the bed

And i made it nice and aisy

Then i got up and i laid her down

Saying: "Lassie, are you able?"

(Chorus:)

With me too-ry-ay

Fol-de-diddle-day

Di-re fol-de-diddle

Dai-rie oh!

Oh, and there we lay till the break of day

And the divil 'o one did hear us

There we lay till the break of the day

And the divil 'o one did hear us

Then i arose and i put on me clothes

Saying: "Lassie, i must leave you."

(Chorus:)

With me too-ry-ay

Fol-de-diddle-day

Di-re fol-de-diddle

Dai-rie oh!

And she "When will you return again

And when will we get married?"

"When will you return again

And when will we get married?"

When broken shells make Christmas bells

Then might we get married!

(Chorus:)

With me too-ry-ay

Fol-de-diddle-day

Di-re fol-de-diddle

Dai-rie oh!
