As I went a-walking in the North country
Down by Kirby Steven I happened for to be
As I was a-walkin up and down the street
A pretty little buy-a-broom I chanced for to meet
For she was right, I was tight, everybody has their way
It was the lish young buy-a-broom that led me astray

She kindly then invited me to go a little way
Yes was the answer to her I did say
There was me with my music walkin down the street
And her with a tamborine was beatin hand and feet
For she was right, I was tight, everybody has their way
It was the lish young buy-a-broom that led me astray

Straight way out for Kendal town we steered her and I
Over yon green mountain the weather being dry
We each had a bottle filled up to the top
And whenever we were feeling dry we took a little drop
For she was right, I was tight, everybody has their way
It was the lish young buy-a-broom that led me astray

The night wa coming on and good lodgings we did find
Eatables of all kind and plenty of good wine
Good bed and blankets just for we two
And I rolled her in me arms me boys, and wouldn't you do too?
For she was right, I was tight, everybody has their way
It was the lish young buy-a-broom that led me astray

Early the next morning we arose to go our way
I called for the landlord to see what was to pay
Fourteen an sixpence just for you two
Four crowns upon the table my darling then she threw
For she was right, I was tight, everybody has their way
It was the lish young buy-a-broom that led me astray

Well the reason that we parted I now shall let you hear
She started off for Germany right early the next year
But me not being willing for to cross the raging sea
Here's a health to my bonny lass wherever she may be
For she was right, I was tight, everybody has their way
It was the lish young buy-a-broom that led me astray
