Maids When You're Young
An auld man came courtin' me - hey ding doorum down
An auld man came courtin' me, me bein' young
An auld man came courtin' me, fain would he marry me,
Maids when you're young never wed an auld man.
Chorus
For he's got no faloorum, fadiddle aye oorum
He's got no faloorum, fadiddle aye ay.
He's got no faloorum, he's lost his ding doorum
So maids when you're young never wed an auld man.
When we went to church - hey ding doorum down
When we went to church, me bein' young
When we went to church, he left me in a lurch
Maids when you're young never wed an auld man.
Chorus
When we went to bed - hey ding doorum down
When we went to bed, me bein' young
When we went to bed, he lay like he were dead
Maids when you're young never wed an auld man.
Chorus
When he went to sleep - hey ding doorum down
When he went to sleep, me bein' young
When he went to sleep, out of bed I did creep
Into the arms of a handsome young man.
Last Chorus
And I found his faloorum, fadiddle aye oorum
And I found his faloorum, fadiddle aye ay.
I found his faloorum, he's got my ding doorum
So maids when you're young, never wed an auld man.
