The good man he came home one night
|
The good man, home came he
|
There he spied an old saddle horse
|
Where no horse should there be
|
It's a cow, it's a cow, cried the good man's wife
|
A cow, just a cow, can't you see?
|
Far have I ridden, and much I've seen
|
But a saddle on a cow there's never been
|
|
The good man he came home one night
|
The good man, home came he
|
There he spied a powdered wig
|
Where no wig should there be
|
It's a hen, it's a hen, cried the good man's wife
|
A hen, just a hen, can't you see?
|
Far have I ridden, and much I've seen
|
But powder on a hen there's never been
|
|
The good man he came home one night
|
The good man, home came he
|
There he spied a riding coat
|
Where no coat should there be
|
It's sheets, just sheets, cried the good man's wife
|
Sheets, just sheets, can't you see?
|
Far have I ridden, and much I've seen
|
But buttons on a sheet there's never been
|
|
The good man he came home one night
|
When the good man home came he
|
There he spied a handsome man
|
Where no man should there be
|
It's the maid, it's the maid, cried the good man's wife
|
The milking maid, can't you see?
|
Far have I ridden, and much I've seen
|
But a beard on a maid there's never been
|

The good man he came home one night

It's a cow, it's a cow, cried the good man's wife
