Up and down the valley,
Up and down the valley;
Up and down the valley,
As I have done before.

In and out the window,
In and out the window;
In and out the window,
As I have done before.

Stand and face your lover,
Stand and face your lover;
Stand and face your lover,
As I have done before.

Follow me to London,
Follow me to London;
Follow me to London,
As I have done before.

—Settle, Yorks. (Rev. W. S. Sykes).

XIX. In and out the willows,
In and out the willows;
In and out the willows,
As you have done before.

Stand and face your lover,
Stand and face your lover;
Stand and face your lover,
As you have done before.

Follow me to London,
Follow me to London;
Follow me to London,
As you have done before.
