When I Was a Young Girl Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When I was a young girl, I used to seek pleasure
When I was a young girl, I used to drink ale
Out of the ale house, down into the jailhouse

My poor head is aching, my sad heart in breaking
My body's salivating and hell is my doom
[Verse 3]

My poor head is aching, my sad heart is breaking
My body's salivating and I'm bound to die
[Verse 4]
One morning, one morning, one morning in May
I saw this young lady all wrapped in white linen
All wrapped in white linen
And called out the plague
