WHen first Rebellion pusht at the Crown, The Summons did pass through every town We muster'd our troops upon the down, with a fa la la la la le ro, And many a gallant did prepare, In glittering armour so brisk and rare, 'Tis better to gang than tarry befare, with a fa la la la la le ro. And Jockey he amongst the rest To fight for the King he thought it best He would not refuse any request, with a fa la etc. And wilt thou be gone to the wars quoth she And leave behind poor helpless me, Alass for grief my heart will dee. with a fa la etc.
Such looks as these gave Adam his fall Tempt me no more for by my Saul 'Tis fit that love give honour the wall: with a fa la etc. Then there will a question arise Which is the greatest number that dies, By Jockeys sweard, or Jennys eyes. with a fa la etc. My bonny lad quoth Jenny so free What am I better for loving thee Since thou wilt be gone and cares not for me with a fa la etc. Ther's men enough else, and let thee remain Therefore I wish thee tarry at heame For fear at the last thou came again lame. with a fa la etc.
SWeet Jenny cease to trouble me now For I will gang to the wars I vow I'l leave thee at heame to milk the Cow. with a fa la la la la le ro. I'le fight for my King as weele as the best And draw my sweard I swear and protest And therefore think not Jenny I jeast. with a fa la etc. When I am drest in armour so bright O it will be such a seemly sight I'le look very big upon all I meet. with a fa la etc. I boldly will venture honour to win When trumpets and drums do make a great din Whatever betide me I care not a pin. with a fa la etc. O Jockey my honey, my love and my joy, Tarry behind and be not so coy, Weel huddle and cuddle, weel kiss and toy, with a fa la etc. I'l feast thee with bannacks and bub of the best With puddings and Sowings so daintily drest And so we will frolick as well as the rest. with a fa la etc. What grief it will be when thou art gane, For me to hear my Jockey were slain And that I should never see thee again. with a fa la etc. O be not so cruel to leave me i'th lirk For thou dost ken we are cryed in the kirk I'l take away beath thy sweard and thy dirk with a fa la etc.
O Jenny why makes thou all this sad wark Thou kens I love thee all in thy sark But now I must leave thee in the dark. with a fa la etc. My fingers doth itch to be dealing of blows I fain would be cutting and slashing of foes, To strip of their Linnen, their Rings and their cloaths with a fa la etc. O Jockey thou makes my heart for to bleed Methinks thou art so doing indeed Thy deadly wounds my sorrows will breed with a fa la etc, Once more I prithee intreated be To tarry at heame with helpless me Least in thy absence I should dee. with a fa la etc, My Jenny I hear the Trumpet sound, Now I must march with honour crown'd Keep for my sake this ring so round. with a fa la etc. If fortune favour that I come back I'l bring my Jenny what she doth lack Of Gloves and Ribbands a pedlers pack, with a fa la etc. Then Jockey kist his Jenny that tide And Jenny she sight and sob'd and cryd. To see him gang she could not abide. with a fa la la la la le ro. But now he is gone to the wars so fell When he'l come back I cannot tell I hope ere long if all prove well,
