[Verse 1: Kate Rusby]
I'll sing you a song and a merry song
Concerning Yorkshire Jen
Who never yet ran with horse or mare
But ran just now and then
When she came to Newmarket town
The sportsmen viewed in round
And oh, the cry was, "Alas, poor wench
She'll never run this ground"
[Chorus: Kate Rusby]
'Cause she was ordinary
Hasn't got any
Hasn't got anyone
[Verse 2: Kate Rusby]
When they came to the starting post
The mare looked very smart
And let them all say what they will
She never lost her start
When they came to the two-mile post
Poor Jen was cast behind
And how they laughed and how they jeered
But Jen she did not mind
[Chorus: Kate Rusby & Damien O'Kane]
'Cause she was ordinary
Hasn't got any
Hasn't got anyone
'Cause she was ordinary
Hasn't got any
Hasn't got anyone
I'll sing you a song and a merry song
