[00:00:00] Old Maid in the garret - Guitavio

[00:00:04] Written by：Trad

[00:00:08] I was told by my aunt

[00:00:10] I was told by my mother

[00:00:13] That going to a wedding

[00:00:15] Who's soon bring of another

[00:00:17] That if this be so short

[00:00:19] I'll go without a bidding

[00:00:21] Oh kind providence

[00:00:23] Won't you set me to a wedding

[00:00:26] And it's oh dear me how will it be

[00:00:30] If I die an old maid in the garrett

[00:00:37] Now sweet sister Jean

[00:00:39] She's not handsome or good looking

[00:00:42] Scarcely sixteen

[00:00:44] And a fellow she was courting

[00:00:46] Now she's twenty four

[00:00:48] Where the son and a daughter

[00:00:50] Here I am I'm forty five

[00:00:53] And I've never had an offer

[00:00:55] And it's oh dear me how will it be

[00:00:59] If I die an old maid in the garrett

[00:01:25] I can cook I can sew

[00:01:28] I can keep a house right tidy

[00:01:30] Rise up in the morning

[00:01:32] And get the breakfast ready

[00:01:34] There's nothing in this hall way

[00:01:37] That makes my heart so chewy

[00:01:39] As a wee fat man

[00:01:41] To call me his own deary

[00:01:43] And it's oh dear me how will it be

[00:01:47] If I die an old maid in the garrett

[00:01:55] So come landsman come townsman

[00:01:57] Come tinker or come tailor

[00:01:59] Fiddler come dancer

[00:02:01] Come ploughman or come sailor

[00:02:04] Come rich man come poor man

[00:02:06] Come fool or come witty

[00:02:08] Come any man at all

[00:02:10] Won't you marry out of pity

[00:02:12] And it's oh dear me how will it be

[00:02:16] If I die an old maid in the garrett

[00:02:42] I was told by my aunt

[00:02:44] I was told by my mother

[00:02:46] That going to a wedding

[00:02:49] What so big or another

[00:02:51] That if this be so short

[00:02:53] I'll go without a bidding

[00:02:55] Oh kind providence

[00:02:57] Won't you send me to a wedding

[00:02:59] And it's oh dear me how will it be

[00:03:04] If I die an old maid in the garrett

[00:03:11] Oh in the garrett

[00:03:15] Oh in the garrett

[00:03:19] Ooh in the garrett

[00:03:22] Do do papara

[00:03:24] In the garret

[00:03:27] Yeahh

[00:03:32] Ooh in the garrett
