Dubliners Ploughboy Lads
When she was only sixteen years
A beauty she was wearing
Ah little, little did she think
That she`d be soon a-grievin` oh oh
Chorus:
For the ploughboys lads are gay braw lads
They`ll court you and deceive you
Oh they`ll take all and they`ll gang awa`
And leave the lasses grievin` oh oh
If she`d stayed home when she was told
And done her mammy`s bidden oh
She`d not be sitting by yon fireside
Singin` hush abye my baby, oh oh
Hush a-bye, she`s your ma
But the Lord knows who`s your daddy oh
So maids take care and ye beware Of the young
man in the gloamin` oh oh
