Basket of
Penguin Book of English Songs
(Lloyd and Williams)
Down in Sandbank fields, two they were
walking,
Their pockets were both with gold.
And as they were talking
A fair there they did behold.
With a little basket by her
As she sat to take her ease.
To carry it for her one of offered
The answer "Sir, if you please".
One of sailors took the basket.
"There's eggs in the basket, please take
And if by you should out-walk me
At the Half-way house please leave there."
Behold these sailors, did out-walk her,
The Half-way house did pass by.
The damsel she laughed at their fancy
And on the she kept her eye.
When these two sailors came an ale-house,
they did call for a pint of wine.
Saying: "Landlord, landlord, fools in this
nation!
young maid from her eggs we've twined.
O Landlord, landlord, bring us bacon
We have these eggs and we'll some dressed."
Behold, sailors were much mistaken
As you say when you hear the rest.
'Twas the landlord he went to the basket
of some eggs to find.
He said: "Young man, you're mistaken,
of eggs I've found a child."
Then one of them sat to weeping
The other said: "It's not while.
Here's fifty I'll give to the baby
If any woman will the child."
The pretty young she sat by the fire,
And she had a shawl drawn her face.
She said:"I'll take it and use it
When I see the money paid."
One of the sailors down the money
Great to the babe was shown.
"Since it is so, let's be friendly
For you know this child it is own."
"Don't you remember with Nancy
As long ago as last day?"
"Oh yes and I do and she pleased my
So now the I have paid."
One of the sailors went up to the
And he the basket o'er and o'er.
"Since it is so, may we all be
But I'm hanged if like eggs any more!"
