Lyrics
I am a cobbler's daughter
I'm thought of rude and mean
But to find a rudder body
Alas, where you've never seen
I've plagued me father's head
For me life I wouldn't wed
Me mother's in the prison 'cause of me
There was a handsome young man
Who used to live by me
If I went out, if I went in
He'd always follow me
I know I don't rue the day
And it happened as I say
I took him to me chamber room to see
I took him to me chamber
Where we could be alone
And knowing that me mother and
Me father were at home
He's kissed me on the cheek
And I screamed 'til I was weak
Me father came a-running to the show
He's jumped upon the young man
As I was standing by
But he brought his fist behind his head
And he stumped him in the eye
Me mother heard the din
Up the stairs she did begin
With a broom for a weapon she held high
Out ran the young man
Onto the stairs straightway
Me mother she was waiting
Like a raging bull I'd say
She's hit him on the head
And the young man fell like lead
Quite dead upon the floor he lay
I am a cobbler's daughter
I'm thought of rude and mean
But to find a rudder body
Alas, where you've never seen
I've plagued me father's head
For me life I wouldn't wed
And me mother's in the prison 'cause of me
