Factory Girl
As I went out walking one fine summer morningThe birds in the bushes did whistle and singThe lads and the lasses in couples were courtin'Going back to the factory their work to beginHe spied one among them, she was fairer then manyHer cheeks like the red rose that blooms in the springHer hair like the lily that grows in Yon' valleyShe was only a hard-working factory girlHe sat soft beside her, more closely to view herShe says, "My young man, don't stare me soI gold in my pocket and silver as wellNo more will I answer that factory call"
