1
It was on a fine summer's morning
2
The birds sweetly tune on each bough
3
And as I walked out for my pleasure
4
I saw a maid milking a cow
5
Her voice was so enchanting, melodious
6
Left me quite unable to go
7
My heart, it was loaded with sorrow
8
For the pretty girl milking her cow
9
Then to her I made my advances
10
"Good morrow, most beautiful maid
11
Your beauty my heart so entrances"
12
"Pray, sir, do not banter," she said
13
"I'm not such a rare precious jewel
14
That I should enamor you so
15
I am but a poor little milk girl"
16
Says the pretty girl milking her cow
17
"The Indies afford no such jewel
18
So bright, so transparently clear
19
Ah do not add flames to my funeral
20
Consent but to know me, my dear"
21
Oh had I the lamp of Aladdin
22
Or the wealth that gold mines can bestow
23
I would rather be poor in a cottage
24
With the pretty girl milking her cow
