Bellowhead - Yarmouth Town lyrics

In Yarmouth town, there lived a man Who kept a tavern by the sand This landlord had a daughter fair A plump little thing with the golden hair Oh won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Well to this tavern came a sailor man He asked the daughter for her hand Why should I marry you? she said I get all I want without being wed Oh won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? But she says if you want with me to linger I'll tie a string all around my finger You come by and you pull on the string I'll come down and I'll let you in Oh won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Well the very next night that sailor man He went to the tavern by the sand He went by, and he pulled on the string She came down and she let him in Oh won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Well he'd never seen such a sight before For the string around her finger was all she wore And when he went and he pulled on the string She pulled back the blankets and let Jack in Oh won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Instrumental And there he spent the whole night through And early in the morning went back to his crew Told them all about that maiden there The plump little thing with the golden hair Oh won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? And the word it soon got round And the very next night in Yarmouth town There were fifteen sailors pulling on the string She came down and she let them all in And won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Instrumental So come all you young sailors who down to Yarmouth do go To see a plump little thing with her hair hanging low Well all you've got to do is pull on the string She'll come down and she'll let you in Oh won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Instrumental Won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town? Won't you come down, won't you come down Won't you come down to Yarmouth town?
