Take Her Out Of Pity
Lyricist:Nick Reynolds, Bob Shane, 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 be grateful for any
Come a landsman, a pinsman, a tinker or a tailor Doctor, a lawyer, soldier or a 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
Come a landsman, a pinsman, a tinker or a tailor Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Doctor, a lawyer, soldier or a 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
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'
Come a landsman, a pinsman, a tinker or a tailor Doctor, a lawyer, soldier or a 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
Don't let her die an old maid but take her out of pity
