Nic Jones - Yarmouth Town lyrics

In Yarmouth Town there lived a man He had a tavern all by the sand The landlord he had a daughter fair A plump little thing with golden hair Won't you come down won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town Won't you come down won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town Now to this tavern come a sailor-man And he asked the daughter for her hand "Why should I marry you, kind sir?" she said "I get all I want without being wed" Won't you come down won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town Won't you come down won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town Now the very same night in Yarmouth Town He goes to the tavern all by the sand. And he goes round the back and he pulls on the string She come down and she let Jack in Won't you come down won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town Won't you come down won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town Now Jack had never seen such a sight before The string on the finger was all she wore And when he went and he pulled that string She come down and she let Jack in Won't you come down won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town Won't you come down won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town So the very next night in Yarmouth Town Down in the tavern all by the sand Sixteen sailors pulling on the string She come down and she let Jack in Won't you come down won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town Won't you come down won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town All young seamen that to Yarmouth do go To see the little thing with her hair hanging low All you've got to do is pull on the string And she'll come down and she'll let you in Won't you come down won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town Won't you come down won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town
