An old man came courting me,
Hey, ding-doorum-down;
An old man came courting me, me being young.
An old man came courting me; wanted to marry me.
Maids when you're young, never wed an old man.
For he's got no faloorum-faliddle-aye-oorum.
He's got no faloorum-faliddle-aye-ay.
He's got no faloorum; he's lost his ding-doorum.
Maids, when you're young, never wed an old man.
When we went to the church,
Hey, ding-doorum-down;
When we went to the church, me being young;
When we went to the church, he near left me in the lurch.
Maids when you're young, never wed an old man.
'Cause he's got no faloorum-faliddle-aye-oorum.
He's got no faloorum-faliddle-aye-ay.
He's got no faloorum; he's lost his ding-doorum.
Maids, when you're young, never wed an old man.
When we went up to bed,
Hey, ding-doorum-down;
When we went up to bed, me being young.
When we went up to bed, he lay like he was dead.
Maids when you're young, never wed an old man.
For he's got no faloorum-faliddle-aye-oorum.
He's got no faloorum-faliddle-aye-ay.
He's got no faloorum; he's lost his ding-doorum.
Maids, when you're young, never wed an old man.
But when he went to sleep,
Hey, ding-doorum-down;
But when he went to sleep, me being young.
But when he went to sleep, out of bed I did creep
Into the arms of a handsome young man
Who's got his faloorum-faliddle-aye-oorum.
He's got his faloorum-faliddle-aye-ay.
He's got such faloorum; I've lost my ding-doorum.
So, maids when you're young, never wed an old man.
