"Where have you been all the day, bonny boy, Billy Boy?
Where have you been all the day, O my dear darling Billy O?"
"Oh I have been all the day walking with a lady gay,
Isn't she a young thing lately from her mummy O?"
"Is she fitting for your wife, bonny boy, Billy Boy?
Is she fitting for your wife, O my dear darling Billy O?"
"She's as fit to be me wife as the heart is to the knife,
Isn't she a young thing lately from her mummy O?"
"And did she ask you to sit down, bonny boy, Billy Boy?
Did she ask you to sit down, O my dear darling Billy O?"
"Well she asked me to sit down then she curtsied to the ground,
Isn't she a young thing lately from her mummy O?"
"Did she light you up to bed, bonny boy, Billy Boy?
Did she light you up to bed, O my dear darling Billy O?"
"Yes she lit me up to bed with a nodding of her head,
Isn't she a young thing lately from her mummy O?"
"Did she lie so close to you, bonny boy, Billy Boy?
Did she lie so close to you, O my dear darling Billy O?"
"Yes she lay so close to me as the bark is to the tree,
Isn't she a young thing lately from her mummy O?"
"Do you want to know her age, bonny boy, Billy Boy?
Do you want to know her age, O my dear darling Billy O?"
"She is twice six seven, she is twice twenty and eleven,
Isn't she a young thing lately from her mummy O?"
