Mark well what I do say, |

In Amsterdam there lived a maid |
|
And she was mistress of her trade. |
|
I'll go no more a'ro-ovin' with you, fair maid. |
|
A'rovin', a'rovin', since rovin's been my ru-I-in, |
|
I'll go no more a'ro-ovin' with you, fair maid. |
|
|
|
Her eyes are like two stars, so bright, |
|
Mark well what I do say, |
|
Her eyes are like two stars, so bright, |
|
Her face is fair, her step is light. |
|
I'll go no more a'ro-ovin' with you, fair maid. |
|
A'rovin', a'rovin', since rovin's been my ru-I-in, |
|
I'll go no more a'ro-ovin' with you, fair maid. |
|
|
|
Her cheeks are like the rosebuds, red, |
|
Mark well what I do say, |
|
Her cheeks are like the rosebuds, red, |
|
There's a wealth of hair upon her head. |
|
I'll go no more a'ro-ovin' with you, fair maid. |
|
A'rovin', a'rovin', since rovin's been my ru-I-in, |
|
I'll go no more a'ro-ovin' with you, fair maid. |
|
|
|
I took this maiden for a walk, |
|
Mark well what I do say, |
|
I took this maiden for a walk, |
|
And sweet and loving was our talk. |
|
I'll go no more a'ro-ovin' with you, fair maid. |
|
A'rovin', a'rovin', since rovin's been my ru-I-in, |
|
I'll go no more a'ro-ovin' with you, fair maid. |
|
A'rovin', a'rovin', since rovin's been my ru-I-in, |
|
I'll go no more a'ro-ovin' with you, fair maid! |
