The Whitby Tailor - Bob Fox
It'sof a brisk young tailor a story I'llrelate In a village near to Whitby town fine garments He'dcreate In a village near to Whitby town This tailor once did dwell And women wine and company He loved exceeding well O well O well He loved exceeding well women Wine and company he loved exceeding well A village dance one New Year'sEve This tailor did attend I'msure that he'dhave stayed at home Could he have seen the end This jolly little tailor He'llnever forget that night For never yet was tailor seen In such a sorry plight A plight A plight in such a sorry plight For never yet was tailor seen In such a sorry plight Now the tailor he sat drinking a glass Or two of wine And not being used to drink Well it caused his face to shine It caused his face to shine just like The morning sun And he swore he'dhave a bonny lass Before that night was done Was done was done before that night was done He swore he'dhave a bonny lass Before that night was done Then the tailor danced and sang He had whisky many a tot And the jolly little tailor was The merriest of the lot He dance with ladies old and young He swung them round and round Till one fair maiden took his arm And asked him to sit down Sit down Sit down she asked him to sit down One fair maiden took his arm and She asked him to sit down Well she took him in her arms And she called him her Dear Honey But as they sat atalkingShe was thinking of his money She was thinking of his money When the tailor smiled and said If you lend me your petticoats I'lldance like a maid A maid a maid I'lldance like a maid If you lend me your petticoats I'lldance like a maid So the tailor took his britches off Her petticoats put on And the maid the tailor'sbritches She quickly did adorn The tailor danced a dance While the fiddler played a tune Then she danced his money Watch and britches right out of the room The room the room Right out of the room She danced his money Watch and britches right out of the room O bring me back me britches The tailor loud did call O bring me back me britches with money Watch and all The company all stood watching And with laughter they did roar When the little tailor'spetticoats fell down Upon the floor The floor the floor Fell down upon the floor The little tailor'spetticoats Fell down upon the floor O Lord said the tailor Wherever you may be O Lord said the tailor Have pity now on me The jolly little tailor He didn'tknow what to do For his little shirt was far too short To cover To cover all below all below Below below to cover all below His little shirt was far too short 'Twasthen the fiddler played a tune for all That he was worth And the tune that he played was The Cock of the North The ladies were delighted and They loudly shouted No When the tailor took his trilby up To cover Uncle Joe Uncle Joe Uncle Joe To cover Uncle Joe The tailor took his trilby up To cover Uncle Joe When at last that little tailor Got out into the street A bevy of fair damsels He chanced there to meet These ladies screamed with laughter When the tailor did appear They gathered round and wished to him Happy New Year New Year New Year Happy New Year They gathered round and wished to Him Happy New Year This poor little tailor Those ladies did address Said he it'snot very ladylike To laugh at man'sundress The ladies to the tailor said Give us no more of that If you call yourself a gentleman Why don'tyou raise your hat Your hat your hat Why don'tyou raise your hat If you call yourself a gentleman Why don'tyou raise your hat In that village near to Whitby Town there'sold men living yet They'lltell you of the famous dance They never will forget Old ladies too will tell you of the dance They loved the best When the jolly little tailor He showed his Cuckoo'snest His nest his nest He showed his Cuckoo'snest The jolly little tailor He showed his Cuckoo'snest Guitar score
