Where Are You Going My Pretty Maid?

from A Cold Cup Of Tea And A Howl Of Despair by Paul Carbuncle

/

lyrics

Where are you going, my pretty maid?
“I’m going a-milking,” she said
“For this is the way I walk each day,
I’m going a-milking,” she said

May I go with you, my pretty maid?
“You’re kindly welcome,” she said
“I do not mind if you follow behind,
You’re kindly welcome,” she said

Marry me will you, my pretty maid?
“If it pleases you, sir,” she said
“I will marry you and be always true
If it pleases you, sir,” she said

What is your father, my pretty maid?
“My father’s a farmer,” she said
“From the dawn of light till the fall of night
My father’s a farmer,” she said

And what is your fortune, my pretty maid?
“My face is my fortune,” she said
“All I have to beguile is this one smile,
My face is my fortune,” she said

Then I cannot marry you, my pretty maid!
“Well nobody asked you,” she said
“If it pleases you I’ll bid you adieu
For nobody asked you,” she said
