Old Maid’s Lament Lyrics – The Womenfolk
Singer: The Womenfolk
Title: Old Maid’s Lament
I had a sister Sally
She was younger than I am
Had so many sweethearts
She had to deny them
As for my own part
I never had many
If you only knew my heart
I’d be thankful for any
Come a landsman, a pinsman
A tinker or a tailor
Fiddler or a dancer
A plow boy or a sailor
Gentle man or poor man
A fool or a witty
Don’t you let me die an old maid
But take me out of pity
I had a sister Susan
She was ugly and ill-shapen
Before she was sixteen years old
She was taken
Before she was eighteen
A son and a daughter
Now here I am, nine and twenty
And I’ve never had an offer
Come a landsman, a pinsman
A tinker or a tailor
Fiddler or a dancer
A plow boy or a sailor
Gentle man or poor man
A fool or a witty
Don’t you let me die an old maid
But take me out of pity
I never shall be scoldin’
I never shall be jealous
My husband will have money
To go to the ale house
While he’s there a-spendin’
I’ll be home a-savin’
And I leave it to the world
If I am not worth havin’
Come a landsman, a pinsman
A tinker or a tailor
Fiddler or a dancer
A plow boy or a sailor
Gentle man or poor man
A fool or a witty
Don’t you let me die an old maid
Please take me out of pity
