<b>Madam I'm A Darling</b> by <i>Paddy Schmidt</i><br />

As I came down to Chester City

In the dark hour late at night

Who should I meet but a fair young maiden

Washing her clothes by the broad moon light

Madam IÂ'm a darling a-di-ro-didero

Madam IÂ'm a darling a-di-ro-dee

First she washed them then she squeezed them

Then she hung them up to dry

Then she folded up her arms

Saying what a nice young girl am I

Going to the well for a pail of water

Bringing it home for to make the tea

She fell over I fell under

All the game was above the knee

Madam I will tie your garter

IÂ'll tie it above the knee

If you like IÂ'll tie it up farther

Madam IÂ'm a darling a di-ro-dee

Madam you have gold and silver

Madam, you have tracks of land

Madam you ships on the ocean

All you need is a nice young man
