He Sold His Wife
Sold at the New Inn
For a jar of Plymouth gin
One Devon wife for sale
James Cole sold his wife
Sold his trouble and strife
One Devon wife for sale
On the table there she stood
He sold her because he could
The biddings in kind not money
The folks all gathered round
A strange scene to be found
The biddings in kind not money
Sold at the New Inn
For a jar of Plymouth gin
One Devon wife for sale
James Cole sold his wife
Sold his trouble and strife
One Devon wife for sale
One Man offered him his coat
James tried it on but what a joke
The coat did not fit him
Oh that coat did not fit
So James refused it
The coat did not fit him
Sold at the New Inn
For a jar of Plymouth gin
One Devon wife for sale
James Cole sold his wife
Sold his trouble and strife
One Devon wife for sale
The landlord of the New Inn
Then offered him some Plymouth gin
A two gallon jar of Plymouth gin
The stone cutter sold his wife
Gaining a new lease of life
And a two gallon jar of Plymouth gin
For a jar of Plymouth gin
One Devon wife for sale
James Cole sold his wife
Sold his trouble and strife
One Devon wife for sale
On the table there she stood
He sold her because he could
The biddings in kind not money
The folks all gathered round
A strange scene to be found
The biddings in kind not money
Sold at the New Inn
For a jar of Plymouth gin
One Devon wife for sale
James Cole sold his wife
Sold his trouble and strife
One Devon wife for sale
One Man offered him his coat
James tried it on but what a joke
The coat did not fit him
Oh that coat did not fit
So James refused it
The coat did not fit him
Sold at the New Inn
For a jar of Plymouth gin
One Devon wife for sale
James Cole sold his wife
Sold his trouble and strife
One Devon wife for sale
The landlord of the New Inn
Then offered him some Plymouth gin
A two gallon jar of Plymouth gin
The stone cutter sold his wife
Gaining a new lease of life
And a two gallon jar of Plymouth gin
