lolly todum - pete seeger lyrics

[verse 1]
as i went out one morning to breathe the pleasant air
lolly toodum, toodum, lolly toodum day
as i went out one morning to breathe the pleasant air
i overheard a mother just scolding her daughter fair
lolly toodum, toodum, lolly toodum day

[verse 2]
now, you go wash them dishes and hush your silly tongue
lolly toodum, toodum, lolly toodum day
you go wash them dishes, hush your silly tongue
you know you want to marry, then that you are too young
lolly toodum, toodum, lolly toodum day

[verse 3]
oh, pity my condition, ma, just like you would your own
lolly toodum, toodum, lolly toodum day
pity my condition just like you would your own
for fourteen long years i’ve lived all alone
lolly toodum, toodum, lolly toodum day

[verse 4]
well, supposing i’d let you marry, where would you get your man?
lolly toodum, toodum, lolly toodum day
supposing i’d let you marry, where would you get your man?

supposing he should slight you, like you done him before?
lolly toodum, toodum, lolly toodum day
supposing he should slight you, like you done him before?

[verse 6]
there’s pedlars and tinkers and boys from the plow
lolly toodum, toodum, lolly toodum day
pedlars and tinkers, boys from the plow
lord’s sakes, mama, i could marry forty now
lolly toodum, toodum, lolly toodum day

[verse 7]
well, now my daughter’s married and well for to do

lolly toodum, toodum, lolly toodum day

[verse 8]
why, lord’s sakes, mama, who would marry you?
lolly toodum, toodum, lolly toodum day
lord’s sakes, mama, who would marry you?
there’s no one in the wide world want a wife as old as you
lolly toodum, toodum, lolly toodum day
[verse 9]
why, there’s doctors, lawyers and men of all degree
lolly toodum, toodum, lolly toodum day
doctors and lawyers, men of all degree
and some of them will marry, and some will marry me
lolly toodum, toodum, lolly toodum day

haha, jolly girls, now i’ve a husband too
lolly toodum, toodum, lolly toodum day
