Cries, do you ken Elsie Marley, honey?
Elsie Marley wore a straw hat,
Now she’s got a velvet cap,
She may thank Lambton men for that,
Do you ken Elsie Marley, honey.
Elsie keeps wine, gin, and ale,
In her house below the dale.
Where every tradesman up and down,
Does call and spend his half-a-crown.
The farmers, as they come that way,
