CHORUS
Oh, won't you come along with me, love
Come along with me
Come for the night, and be my wife
Yeah, come along with me. Hey!
Well, it is of a jolly butcher, as you might plainly see
As he rode on out one moring, in search of company
He went into a tavern, and a fair girl he did see
Aw, come for the night. Be my wife
Just come along with me
He called for the girl of the best
And he made such fortune plain
Come have a drink, and I'll make us think
That it is our wedding day
CHORUS
Well, he called for a candle, to light their way to bed
And when he had her in the room, these words to her he said:
"A soverign I will give to you, for to embrace your charms."
And all that night that fair young maid
Lied in the butcher's arms
CHORUS
Oh, won't you come along with me, love
Come along with me
Come for the night, and be my wife
Yeah, come along with me. Hey!
Well, it is of a jolly butcher, as you might plainly see

He went into a tavern, and a fair girl he did see

He called for the girl of the best
And he made such fortune plain
Come have a drink, and I'll make us think

And when he had her in the room, these words to her he said:

And all that night that fair young maid
Lied in the butcher's arms
