Verse 1
All in the town of Marlboro',
A rich farmer there did dwell,
He had an only daughter,
And I think her name was Nell.
Verse 2
She had an only sweetheart,
A proper tall young man,
He was one of her father's servants,
And I think that his name was Jan.
Verse 3

They broke a piece of gold.
Verse 4
And when this gold was broken,
Her arms round his neck she wound,
When there came her own enraged father,
A-stamping on his own ground.
Verse 5
He fell in a raging passion,
With his daughter and his man,
And he vowed, since this they'd ?
They never would meet again.
Verse 6
'Dear daughter, I'll confine you,
All in some silent room,
