[00:00:01] Written by：trad./John Spiers/Jon Boden

[00:00:09] It was on one monday morning

[00:00:14] And oh and it

[00:00:16] Was soon

[00:00:18] I bought my pretty betty

[00:00:22] A pair of new shoes

[00:00:28] A pair of new shoes and slippers

[00:00:34] Also

[00:00:38] But I lost my pretty betty

[00:00:43] By courting too slow

[00:00:50] I lost my pretty betty

[00:00:54] By courting too slow

[00:01:01] I bought my pretty betty

[00:01:06] A garland of green

[00:01:10] And ribbons that you wear

[00:01:15] So fair to be seen

[00:01:20] And rings for her fingers all made

[00:01:26] Of glitt'ring gold

[00:01:31] But I lost my pretty betty

[00:01:36] By not being bold

[00:01:42] I lost my pretty betty

[00:01:47] By not being bold

[00:02:40] It was on one Tuesday evening

[00:02:45] And oh and it was late

[00:02:49] I fain would have kissed her but I was too straight

[00:02:59] I was thinking how to gain her consent to be true

[00:03:10] But I lost my pretty betty

[00:03:15] By courting too slow

[00:03:21] I lost my pretty betty

[00:03:26] By courting too slow

[00:03:30] For in there come a sailor

[00:03:36] All in his tarry shoes

[00:03:40] He went into chalen chamber

[00:03:44] Where my true love was

[00:03:50] He kissed her and he

[00:03:53] Flattered her he flattered her so

[00:04:01] He fair won the day

[00:04:06] By my courting too slow

[00:04:12] He fair won the day

[00:04:17] By my courting too slow

[00:05:10] So come all you bold fellows

[00:05:15] And pray take my advice

[00:05:19] And when you go a courting

[00:05:24] Now don't you be too nice

[00:05:29] But you kiss all them pretty girls and you let

[00:05:35] Them for to know

[00:05:41] That you don't mean to lose them

[00:05:45] By courting too slow

[00:05:52] That you don't mean to lose them

[00:05:58] By courting too slow
