I Loike to watch har in the Parson's pew
A Sundays me a setting in the choir:
She look jest wholly be'utiful, she do
That fairly sim to set my heart a-fire

Her gowden hair, a glist'rin in th sun
Them bright blew eyes- good lor, I see 'em now
I carn abear it when the sarmon's done
That fare to make me feel I dunner how

Las' Saddy, I was long o' Tom and Bill
Down on th' allotment, back o' Thompsons Farm
When she come past us, walkin' tard the hill
A basket of the paigles on her arm

Nive evenin, John she say, as she goo by
An' smiled - goodstruth, you mighter knock me down
This is indeed, Miss, I was go'n to say
But there, I couldn't, give me 'arf a crown.

Says Bill, a-larfin, as she turned the lane
She's waiting for yer, round the corner, bor
I give ee' sich a look, he larft again,
and made me fee that mads I could a swore.

I carnt abide it when these bits o' chaps
Talk of Miss Julia, saime as if they might
If she was some bloke's gal, but lor prehaps
I think too much o' har, a jolly sight

That sim ridic'lous nons,nse this, I doubt
A tellin on yer how she make me feel
But who's to help it when she walk about
More like an angel than a gal a deal?

That made me wild to see the Lunnon chap
What come down to the Hall las' Mon'ay week
A-coaxin' o' the dawg there in her lap
She settin' in the garden - dang his cheek

But there, Miss Julia! Law a mussy me
I didn't oughter think of har n' more
That aint as if she knaow I cared for she
And do I reckon she's give me what for.
