1
It was on a fine summer's morning
2
The birds sweetly tune on each bough
3
And as I walked out for my pleasure
4
I saw a maid milking a cow
5
Her voice was so enchanting, melodious
6
Left me quite unable to go
7
My heart, it was loaded with sorrow
8
For the pretty maid milking her cow
9
Then to her I made my advances
10
"good morrow most beautiful maid
11
Your beauty my heart so entrances"
12
"pray sir do not banter," she said
13
"i'm not such a rare precious jewel
14
That I should enamour you so
15
I am but a poor little milk girl,"
16
Says the pretty maid milking her cow
17
The indies afford no such jewel
18
So bright, so transparently clear
19
I do not add things to my funeral
20
Consent but to know me my dear
21
Oh, had I the lamp of aladdin
22
Or the wealth that gold mines can bestow
23
I'd rather be poor in a cottage
24
With the pretty girl milking her cow.
