• Yarmouth Town

1. In Yarmouth Town there lived a man,
kept a little tavern down by the strand.
The landlord had a daughter fair,
a pretty little thing with the golden hair.

Ch.: Oh, won't you come down,
Won't you come down,
Won't you come down
To Yarmouth town.

2. At night there came a sailor man
and he asked the daughter for her hand.
"Oh, why should I marry you, she said,
I've got all I want without being wed.

3. "But if with me you want a linger,
I tie a piece of string all around my finger
all you gotta do is pull on the string
and I'll come down and I'll let you in."

4. At closing time the sailor man
went back to the tavern down by the strand
and as he passed by, he pulled on the string,
she came down, and she let him in.

5. The sailor man was quite surprised
When she winked her lovely eyes
Now he never seen such a sight before,
'cause the string around the finger was all she wore.

6. The sailor stayed the whole night through
and early in the morning went back to his crew,
and then he told them about the daughter fair,
the pretty little thing with the golden hair.

7. Well, the news it soon got all around
and the very next night in Yarmouth Town
there were fifteen sailors pulling on the string
and she came down and she let them all in.

8. So all young men that to Yarmouth go,
if you see a pretty girl with her hair hanging low,
well, all you've got to do is pull on the string,
and she'll come down and she'll let you all in.
