Lyrics

1. As I went out one morning to take the morning air,
Rolly trudum, trudum, tru-dolly day,
As I went out one morning to take the morning air,
And there stood a woman talking to her daughter fair.

Refrain
Rolly trudum, trudum, tru-dolly day,
Rolly trudum, trudum, tru-dolly day.

2. “Oh, hush your silly talking and hold that rattling tongue,”
Rolly trudum, trudum, tru, dolly day,
“Oh, hush your silly talking and hold that rattling tongue,
For you to marry, you know you are too young.” Refrain
