Lyrics
(Folk song)
Girls and boys, come out to play,
The moon doth shine as bright as day;
Come with a whoop, come with a call,
Come with a good will or not at all.
Leave your supper, and leave your sleep,
And come with your playfellows into the street.
Up the ladder and down the wall,
A penny loaf will serve you all.
