Lolly Too Dum
As I went out one morning to take the pleasant air
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
As I went out one morning to take the pleasant air
I overheard a mother a-scolding her daughter fair
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"You better go wash them dishes, and hush that flattering tongue."
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"You better go wash them dishes, and hush that flattering tongue
You know you want to get married and that you are too young."
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"Oh, pity my condition just as you would your own."
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"Oh, pity my condition just as you would your own
For fourteen long years, I've been living all alone."
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day.
"Supposing I was willing, where would you get your man?"
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"Supposing I was willing, where would you get your man?"
"Why, Lordy, mercy! Mammy, I'd marry Handsome Sam."
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day
"Supposing he should slight you like you done him before?"
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"Supposing he should slight you like you done him before?"
"Why, Lordy, mercy! Mama, I'd marry forty more."
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"There's doctors and lawyers and boys from the plow."
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"There's doctors and lawyers and boys from the plow."
"Why, Lordy, mercy! Mammy, the fit comes on me now."
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"Now, my daughter's married and well for to do."
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"Now, my daughter's married and well for to do."
"Come gather 'round, young fellers! I'm on the market, too!"
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
As I went out one morning to take the pleasant air
I overheard a mother a-scolding her daughter fair
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"You better go wash them dishes, and hush that flattering tongue."
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"You better go wash them dishes, and hush that flattering tongue
You know you want to get married and that you are too young."
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"Oh, pity my condition just as you would your own."
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"Oh, pity my condition just as you would your own
For fourteen long years, I've been living all alone."
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day.
"Supposing I was willing, where would you get your man?"
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"Supposing I was willing, where would you get your man?"
"Why, Lordy, mercy! Mammy, I'd marry Handsome Sam."
Lolly too dum, too dum, Lolly too dum day
"Supposing he should slight you like you done him before?"
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"Supposing he should slight you like you done him before?"
"Why, Lordy, mercy! Mama, I'd marry forty more."
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"There's doctors and lawyers and boys from the plow."
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
"There's doctors and lawyers and boys from the plow."

Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day

Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day

"Come gather 'round, young fellers! I'm on the market, too!"
Lolly too dum, too dum, lolly too dum day
