Lyrics The Molecatcher - Heather Alexander
In
Wellington
town
at
the
sign
of
the
plough
There
lived
a
molecatcher,
shall
I
tell
you
now?
He
had
a
young
wife,
she
was
buxom
and
gay,
And
she
and
another
young
farmer
did
play
TURNAROUND:
Lo
til
lie
day,
lo
til
lie
little,
li
lo
til
lie
day
Well,
the
farmer
he
knocked
on
her
door
and
did
say
"Where
is
the
molecatcher,
good
woman,
I
pray?"
"He's
out
catchin'
moles,
love,
you
need
have
no
fear"
But
she
didn't
know
the
molecatcher
was
near
Well,
he
crept
up
the
stairs
in
the
midst
of
their
frolic
The
molecatcher
caught
him
right
up
by
the
jacket
"I've
been
a
molecatcher
for
most
of
my
life
But
here's
the
best
mole
I
ever
caught
with
my
wife"
"Well,
I'll
make
you
pay
dearly
for
tilling
my
ground
I'll
take
from
your
pocket
a
full
twenty
pound"
"Twenty
pound,"
says
the
farmer,
"I
really
can't
mind,
It
only
works
out
about
tuppence
a
time"
