barbara dane - factory girl lyrics
as i went out walking one fine summer morning
the birds in the bushes did warble and sing
all the lads and the l-sses were joking and sporting
going down to the factory their work to begin
i spied one among them was farer than any
her cheeks like the red rose that bloom in the spring
her hair like the wheat fields that blow in the valley
and she but a hard working factory girl
he stepped up beside her more closely to view her
but on him she cast such a look of disdain
saying young men have manners and do not approach me
for although i’m a poor girl i think it no shame
he said i’ll never scorn you, can you see i adore you?
just grant me this favor say where do you dwell?
kind sir you’ll excuse me for now i must leave you
for yonder’s the sound of my factory bell
love and sensation rule many a nation
go marry a lady and may you do well
but i am an orphan with nor a relation
that’s why i’m a hard working factory girl
with these words she turned and straight away left him
and for her sake he has wandered away
to some lonesome valley where no one shall no him
and he’ll mourn for the love of the factory girl
