[Verse 1]
Young women they run
Like hares on the mountains
Young women they run
Like hares on the mountains
If I were but a young man
I'd soon go a-hunting
To my right-farther-diddle-dare-o
To my right-far-diddle-dee

[Verse 2]
Young women they sing
Like birds in the bushes
Young women like sing
Like birds in the bushes
If I were but a young man
I'd go bang those bushes
To my right-farther-diddle-dare-o
To my right-far-diddle-dee

[Verse 3]
Young women they swim
Like ducks in the water
Young women they swim
Like ducks in the water
If I were but a young man
I'd go and swim after
To my right-farther-diddle-dare-o
To my right-far-diddle-dee
