And how shall I get me to Twickenham Town?”

She’d a rose in her bonnet, and oh! she look’d sweet

As the little pink flower that grows in the wheat,

With her cheeks like a rose and her lips like a cherry,

“And sure and you’re welcome to Twickenham Town.”

O-hoi ye-ho, Ho-ye-ho, Ho-ye-ho, Ho.

3.

O-hoi ye-ho, Ho, you’re too late for the ferry,

The briars in bud, the sun going down,

And he’s not rowing quick and he’s not rowing steady,
