Sally Waters, Sally Waters, come sprinkle in the pan;
Rise, Sally; rise, Sally, for a young man!
Choose for the best, choose for the worst,
Choose for the very one you love the best.

Now you are married, we wish you joy;
First a girl and then a boy,
Seven years afterwards son and daughter;
Pray, young couple, kiss together.

—London version (Miss Dendy).

V.

Sally, Sally Walker,
Sprinkling in a pan;
Rise, Sally; rise, Sally,
For a young man.

Come, choose from the east,
Come, choose from the west,
Come, choose out the very one
That you love best.

Now there’s a couple
Married in joy;
First a girl,
And then a boy.

Now you’re married;
You must obey
Every word
Your husband says.

Take a kiss
And walk away,
And remember the promise
You’ve made to-day.
