Verse 1
Come all you young lovers and listen to me,
A warning I'm giving as clearly you'll see,
Concerning a woman I thought was my own,
She's gone with some other and left me alone.
Chorus
Singing damn, damn, rigmarole down,
I thought that she loved me but she let me down.
I wandered one evening to see my true love,
The moon and the stars were shining above;
She called me her loved one, she called me her man,
But that was the last that I saw of my Jan.
Verse 2
I strayed to her cottage but found she had gone,
I thought of her sadly as I went along;
I thought of the lies that she piled upon me,
And I bitterly thought of her inconstancy.
Chorus
Verse 3
So all you young lovers, take warning by me,
Have nothing to do with the women of Leigh;
They'll treat you to pleasure and call you their own,
But then in the morning you'll find they have gone.
Chorus
