It fell out upon one Martin mass time when snow lay on the border
There came a troop of soldiers here to take up [F#] their winter waters
And they've rode north and they've rode south and they've rode o'er the border
And there they met with a nice little girl and she was a farmer's daughter
And they've made her swear a solemn oath with a salt tear in her eye-o
That she would [D#m] come to [F#] the quarter gates when no one did her spie-o
And she's gone to the barber shop to the barber [B] shop [F#] when soon-o
She's made [B] them [F#] cut her long yellow hair as short as any [B] [C#] dragoon-o
A [F#]'with me right valet de lily daddy-o with me right valet de lily
[C#] And [D#m] she's [B] gone to [F#] the tailor [C#] shop [D#m] and [C#] dresses [B] in soldier's [F#] clothes-o
Two [B] long [F#] pistols down by her side a nice little boy [B] was [C#] she-o
A [F#]'with me right valet de [C#] lily daddy-o [F#] with me right valet de lily
[C#]
[F#] And she's [B] gone to [F#] the quarter gates and loudly [B] she [F#] does call-o
There comes [B] a troop [F#] of soldiers here and he must have lodged [B] in [C#] Zollo
A [F#]'with me right valet de lily daddy-o with me right valet [B] de lily
[C#]
[D#m] And the quarter [B] master [F#] he [C#] comes down [D#m] he [C#] gives [B] her half [F#] a crown-o
Go [B] find your [F#] lodgings in the town for here there is [B] no [C#] room-o
A [F#]'with me right valet de [C#] lily daddy-o [F#] with me right valet de lily

[C#] And [D#m] she took [B] the garters [F#] from [C#] her [F#] knees the [B] ribbons from [F#] her hair-o
She's tied [B] them [F#] around the quarter gates as a token she's [B] been [C#] there-o
[F#] [C#m] [F#]
[C#] And [D#m] when they [B] found [F#] that it [C#] was her [B] they tried to have her [F#] taken
