Emily Smith - Twa Sisters lyrics

rate me

There were twa sisters, side by side

Do I dum, and do I dae

There were twa sisters, side by side

All the boys are bad for me

There were twa sisters, side by side

The eldest wore young Johnny's kite

Hope you do, undo, my love,

Be true to me

Old Johnny, bought a golden ring

Do I dum, and do I dae

Johnny bought the youngest a golden ring

All the boys have been for me(?)

Johnny bought the youngest a golden ring

Didn't get the sisters a dreaded thing

Hope you do, undo, my love,

Be true to me

As they went walking by the stony brim

Do I dum, and do I dae

As they went walking by the stony brim

All the boys are bad for me

As they went walking by the stony brim

The elders pushed their sister in

Hope you do, undo, my love,

Be true to me

Oh, sister, sister, gimme your hand

Do I dum, and do I dae

Sister, sister, gimme your hand

All the boys are bad for me

Sister, I know, gimme your hand

But I'll take Johnny and all his land

Hope you do, undo, my love,

Be true to me

Oh, the way she sunk and the way she swum

Do I dum, and do I dae

Oh, the way she sunk and the way she smile

All the boys are bad for me

The way she sunk and the way she smile

Till she come to the millers dump

Hope you do, undo, my love,

Be true to me

That miller, he took her golden ring

Do I dum, and do I dae

That miller, he took her golden ring

All the boys are bad for me

The melody took her golden ring

Then he pushed her in again

Hope you do, undo, my love,

Be true to me
