Verse 1
My name is Joe Muggins, a farmer, you know,
I once courted a girl, but I was rather slow;
I stood under the pump and got dripping wet through:
Said she, 'Joe, won't 'e come in for a minute or two?'
Said I to the servant, 'Don't mind if I do.'
Chorus
Fol the rol ladle tee,
Fol the rol ladle tee,
Fol the rol ladle tee,
Fol the rol day.
Verse 2
I went into the kitchen and put all things right,
When six pounds of bacon I put out of sight,
Said she, 'Joe, could 'e do with a dumpling or two?'
'A a,' said I to the servant, 'Don't care if I do.'
Chorus
Verse 3
So I finished the dumplings and was ready to go,
She looked in my face and I looked rather blue;
Says she, 'Why don't you kiss and cuddle me too,
As other true lovers?' 'Don't mind if I do.'
Chorus
Verse 4
We went to the church all for to be wed,
The parson opened his book and these words he said -
'Now, for better or worse you must take her, you know.'
'A a,' said Ito the parson, 'Don't mind if I do.'
