Align:    
  • Oh its of a young squire in tamworth we hear
  • And he courted a noblemans daughter so fair
  • For to marry her it was his intent
  • And the friends and relations had given their consent
  • Now a date was appointed for their wedding day
  • And the farmer he was appointed to give her away
  • But as soon as the lady this farmer did spy
  • Her heart was inflamed and bitterly she did cry
  • And she turned from the squire but nothing she said
  • But instead of getting married she took to her bed
  • And the thoughts of the farmer so ran in her mind
  • A way for to have him she quickly did find
  • Coat waistcoat and trousers the young girl put on
  • And away she went a-hunting with her dog and her gun
  • And she hunted around where the farmer he did dwell
  • Because in her heart oh she loved him so well
  • And she oftentimes fired but nothing she killed
  • Until this young farmer came into the field
  • And to talk with him it was her intent
  • With her dog and her gun then to meet him she went
  • Oh I thought you would be at the wedding she cried
  • To wait on the squire and to give him his bride
  • Oh no said the farmer Ill take a sword in my hand
  • By honor Id gain her whenever she command
  • And the lady was pleased when she heard him so bold
  • And she gave him a glove that was made out of gold
  • And she told him that she found it (as? ) she was coming along
  • As she went out a-hunting with her dog and her gun
  • And this lady went home with a heart full of love
  • And she gave out a notice that shed lost her glove
  • And whoever found it and he brings it to me
  • Whoever he is then my husband shall be
  • The farmer he was pleased when he heard of the news
  • And with a heart full of love to the lady he goes
  • Oh lady oh lady Ive picked up your glove
  • And I hope that youll be pleased for to grant me some love
  • Oh its already granted (and? ) I will be your bride
  • For I love the sweet breath of the farmer she cried
  • Ill be mistress of your dairy and Ill milk all your cows
  • While me jolly old farmer goes whistling on his plow
  • And its when they got married and they told of the fun
  • How shed gone out a-hunting with her dog and her gun
