The Roches - Factory girl

As I went out walking one fine summer's ^Cmorning The ^Dbirds in the branches they did ^Cgaily ^Dsing The lads and the lasses together were ^Gsporting Going ^Ddown to the factory their work ^Gto be^Dgin

I spied a fair damsel far fairer than ^Cany Her ^Dcheeks like the red rose that none ^Ccould ex^Dcel Her skin like the lily that grows in yon ^Gvalley She's my ^Down bonnie Annie my ^Gfactory ^Dgirl

I stepped did up to her, just thinking to ^Cview her But at ^Dme she cast a proud look ^Cof dis^Ddain Saying, "Stand off me, young man and do not in^Gsult me For al^Dthough I am poor, sure I think it ^Gno ^Dshame"

"It's not to insult you, fair maid I adore ^Cthee Ah, pray ^Dgrant me one favour, it's where ^Cdo ya ^Ddwell?" "Kind sir forgive me, it's now I must ^Gleave you For I ^Dhear the dumb sound of the ^Gfactory ^Dbell"

"Now love is a thing that does rule every ^Cnation Good ^Dmorning, kind sir, and I hope ^Cya do ^Dwell My friends and relations would all frown u^Gpon it Be^Dsides I'm a hardworking ^Gfactory ^Dgirl"

Oh, it's true I do love her, but now she won't have ^Cme For ^Dher sake I'll wander through ^Cvalley and ^Ddell And for her sake I'll wander where no one can find ^Gme I'll ^Ddie for the sake of my ^Gfactory ^Dgirl
