Verse 1
Jack took a road he knew very well,
He came to a castle so high;
He cried and bawled, so loudly he called,
'Maids do you want any broom, green broom,
Maids do you want any broom?'
Verse 2
The lady being high and hearing Jack cry,
Called in that young lad with his broom;
She said - 'My young blade, will you leave off your trade,
And marry a lady in bloom, in bloom,
And marry a lady in bloom?'
Verse 3
Jack he arose [etc]
Though low and he strives and sharpens his knives,
And cut him a bundle of broom, green broom,
And cut him a bundle of broom.
Verse 4
Now they live at their ease, and kiss when they please,
But there's nothing like shaving green broom, green broom,
But there's nothing like shaving green broom.
