[Verse 1: Kate Rusby]
Will you marry me, sir?
Oh, tether me down
For I am too free
Will you walk hand in hand with me?
For I do carry a child by thee
[Verse 2: Paul Brady]
Oh madam, I'll not marry thee
For I'm married away
And I'll always be
I'll not walk hand in hand with thee
Even though you've a child by me
[Verse 3: Kate Rusby]
Oh sir, heartbroken I'll be
Is she finer than I?
Is she tall and lean?
Is she the rarest you've ever seen?
Of your own heart is she the queen?
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4: Paul Brady]
Oh madam, she's twenty of thee
She's tall and she's lean
And how she smiles on me
She is the rarest and she is my queen
I'll never care for a girl like thee
Will you marry me, sir?
Oh, tether me down
For I am too free
Will you walk hand in hand with me?
For I do carry a child by thee
[Verse 2: Paul Brady]
Oh madam, I'll not marry thee
For I'm married away
And I'll always be
I'll not walk hand in hand with thee
Even though you've a child by me
[Verse 3: Kate Rusby]
Oh sir, heartbroken I'll be
Is she finer than I?
Is she tall and lean?
Is she the rarest you've ever seen?
Of your own heart is she the queen?
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4: Paul Brady]
Oh madam, she's twenty of thee
She's tall and she's lean
And how she smiles on me
She is the rarest and she is my queen
I'll never care for a girl like thee
