My young Mary do's mind the dairy,
While I go a howing, and mowing each morn;
Then hey the little spinning wheel
Merrily round do's reel
While I am singing amidst the corn:
Cream and kisses both are my delight
She gives me them, and the joys of night;
She's soft as the air,
As morning fair,
Is not such a maid a most pleasing sight.
