In Plymouth Town there lived a maid

Bless you young women

In Plymouth Town there lived a maid

Mind what I did say

In Plymouth Town there lived a maid

And she was mistress of her trade

I'll go no more a rovin' with you fair maid

A rovin' a rovin' since roving's been my ruin

I'll go no more a rovin' with you fair maid

I took this fair maid for a walk

Bless you young women

And we had such a loving talk

Mind what I did say

I took this fair maid for a walk

And we had such a loving talk

I'll go no more a rovin' with you fair maid

A rovin' a rovin' since roving's been my ruin

I'll go no more a rovin' with you fair maid

Her eyes are like two stars so bright

Bless you young women

Her face is fair her step is light

Mind what I did say

Her eyes are like two stars so bright

Her face is fair her step is light

I'll go no more a rovin' with you fair maid

A rovin' a rovin' since roving's been my ruin

I'll go no more a rovin' with you fair maid

I put my arm around her waist

Bless you young women

She said Young man you're in great haste

Mind what I did say

I put my arm around her waist

She said young man you're in great haste

I'll go no more a rovin' with you fair maid

A rovin' a rovin' since roving's been my ruin

I'll go no more a rovin' with you fair maid
