Well, Johnny be fine and Johnny be fair, he wants me for a girl
And I would marry Johnny, but my father up and said
I'm sorry to tell you, daughter, what your mother never knew
But Johnny, he's a son of mine, so he's kin to you
Well, Willie be fine and Willie be fair, he wants me for a girl
And I would marry Willie, but my father up and said
I'm sorry to tell you, daughter, what your mother never knew
But Willie, he's a son of mine, so he's kin to you
Well, Jimmy be fine and Jimmy be fair, he wants me for a toy
And I would marry Jimmy, but my father up and said
I'm sorry to tell you, daughter, what your mother never knew
But Jimmy, he's a son of mine, so he's kin to you
Well, never was there a girl so sad and sorry as I was
The boys in town, they're all my kin and my father is the cause
I will not be contented for to die a single miss
I think I'll go to mother and complain to her of this
Well, daughter, haven't I taught you to forgive and to forget?
So your father sowed his oats, so still you shouldn't pray
Your father may be the cause of all the [F#] boys in town
But still,
[F] he's not the one who sired you
So marry who you will
