Maids When Youre Young by Rosie Hood Lyrics

An old man came courting me, hey dingdorum down
An old man came courting me, me being young
An old man came courting me, fain would he marry me
Maids when you're young never wed an old man

Chorus (repeated after each verse):
Because he's got no falorum, faliddle-aye-orum
He's got no falorum, faliddle-aye-ay
He's got no falorum, he's lost his dingdorum
So maids when you're young never wed an old man

When we went to church, hey dingdorum down
Whеn we went to church, me bеing young
When we went to church he left me in the lurch
Maids when you're young never wed an old man

When we went to bed, hey dingdorum down
When we went to bed, me being young
When we went to bed he lay like he was dead
Maids when you're young never wed an old man
Threw my leg over him, hey dingdorum down
Threw my leg over him, me being young
Threw my leg over him, damn well near smothered him
Maids when you're young never wed an old man

When he went to sleep, hey dingdorum down
When he went to sleep, me being young
When he went to sleep, out of bed I did creep
Into the arms of my handsome young man

Last chorus:
Because he's got his falorum, faliddle-aye-orum
He's got his falorum, faliddle-aye-ay
He's got his falorum, I found his dingdorum
So maids when you're young never wed an old man
