Lyrics

Bob shane/nick reynolds/john stewart

I had a sister sally, she was younger than I am. had so many sweethearts, she had to deny them
But as for sister sarah, you know she hasn't many. and if you knew her heart, she'd grateful for any

Chorus:
Come a lands man, a pins man, a tinker or a tailor; doctor, a lawyer, soldier, or sailor
A rich man, a poor man, a fool or a witty, don't let her die an old maid but take her out of pity

We had a sister sally, she was ugly and misshapen. by the time she was sixteen years old she was taken
By the time she was eighteen, a son and a daughter. sarah's almost twenty-nine, never had an offer

(Chorus)

She never would be scoldin'. she never would be jealous. her husband would have money to go to the alehouse
He was there a-spendin'. she'd be home a-savin' and I leave it up to you if she is not worth havin'

(Chorus)
