Where have you been all the day

Me own dear darlin' boy?

Where have you been all the day

Me own dear comfort and joy?

I’ve been out with my stepmother

Make me bed mammy do

Oh, make me bed mammy do

What did she give you for your supper

Me own dear darlin' boy?

What did she give you for your supper

Me own dear comfort and joy?

I got fish and I got broth

Make me bed mammy do

Oh, make me bed mammy do

Where did she get the fish that she gave you

Me own dear darlin' boy?

Where did she get the fish that she gave you

Me own dear comfort and joy?

Hedges caught them and ditches sought them

Make me bed mammy do

Oh, make me bed mammy do

What did you do with your fish bones

Me own dear darlin' boy?

What did you do with your fish bones

Me own dear comfort and joy?

I gave them to my greyhound

Make me bed mammy do

Oh, make me bed mammy do

What then did your greyhound do

Me own dear darlin' boy?

What then did your greyhound do

Me own dear comfort and joy?

There he swelled and there he died

Make me bed mammy do

Oh, make me bed mammy do

What will you leave to your own mother

Me own dear darlin' boy?

What will you leave to your own mother

Me own dear comfort and joy?

I’ll leave her my house and land

Make me bed mammy do

Oh, make me bed mammy do

What will you leave to your stepmother

Me own dear darlin' boy?

What will you leave to your stepmother

Me own dear comfort and joy?

I’ll leave her a rope to hang her

From the nearest tree

For the poisoning of me

Oh, where have you been all the day

Me own dear darlin' boy?

Where have you been all the day

Me own dear comfort and joy?

I’ve been out with my step mother

Make me bed mammy do

Oh, make me bed mammy do

Make my bed mammy do

Oh, make my bed mammy do

Make my bed mammy do

Oh, make my bed mammy do
