Lolly-Too-Dum

As I went out one morning to take the pleasant air
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day
As I went out one morning to take the pleasant air
I overheard a mother a-scolding her daughter fair
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day

"Now you go wash them dishes, and hush your silly tongue."
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day
"Now you go wash them dishes, and hush that silly tongue
You know you want to get married and that you are too young."
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day

"Oh, pity my condition, mom, just like you would your own."
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day
"Oh, pity my condition, mom, just like you would your own
For fourteen long years I've been living all alone."
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day

"Supposing that I let you marry, just where would you get your man?"
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day
"Supposing that I let you marry, where would you get your man?"
"Why, Lordy, mercy! Mama, I could marry that handsome Sam."
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day

"Supposing he should slight you like you done him before?"
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day
"Supposing he should slight you like you done him before?"
"Why, Lordy, mercy! Mama, I could marry forty more."
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day

"There's peddlers, and tinkers, and boys from the plow"
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day
"There's peddlers, and tinkers, and boys from the plow"
"Why, Lordy, mercy! Mama, I'd marry forty now."
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day

"Now, my daughter's married and well for to do."
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day
"Now, my daughter's married and well for to do
"Six daughters married, now I'm on the market, too!"
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day

"Why, Lordy, mercy! Mama, who would marry you?"
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day
"Why, Lordy, mercy! Mama, who would marry you?
"There's no one in the wide world that want a wife as old as you"
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day

"There's doctors, and lawyers and men of all degree"
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day
"There's doctors, and lawyers and men of all degree
"And some of them will marry, and some will marry me!"
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day

"Well, now I am marry and well for to be"
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day
"Now, I am marry and well for to be
"Ha-ha, jolly girls, that pity is off of me!"
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day
