Master Kilby
[Verse 1]
In the heat of the day
When the sun shines so freely
I met Master Kilby
So fine and so gay
[Verse 2]
I pulled off my hat
And I bowed to the ground
And I said. Master Kilby
Oh, where are you bound?
[Verse 3]
I'm bound for the west
In hope to find rest
In the arms of my dear Nancy
I'll build a new nest
[Verse 4]
If I was the master
Of ten thousand pounds
In bright gold and silver
Or in King William's crown
[Verse 5]
I'd part with it all
With my own heart so freely
It's all for the sake
Of my charming Nancy
[Verse 6]
She's the fairest of girls
She's the choice of my heart
And her skin shines like silver
In every part
[Verse 7]
I gave her some kisses
It was down by the sea shore
But still she lay asking
Lay asking for more
In the heat of the day
When the sun shines so freely
I met Master Kilby
So fine and so gay
[Verse 2]
I pulled off my hat
And I bowed to the ground
And I said. Master Kilby
Oh, where are you bound?
[Verse 3]
I'm bound for the west
In hope to find rest
In the arms of my dear Nancy
I'll build a new nest
[Verse 4]
If I was the master
Of ten thousand pounds
In bright gold and silver
Or in King William's crown
[Verse 5]
I'd part with it all
With my own heart so freely
It's all for the sake
Of my charming Nancy
[Verse 6]
She's the fairest of girls
She's the choice of my heart
And her skin shines like silver
In every part
[Verse 7]
I gave her some kisses
It was down by the sea shore
But still she lay asking
Lay asking for more
