Master Kilby

In the heat of the day

When the sun shines so freely

There I met master kilby

So fine and so gay

I pulled off my hat

And I bowed to the ground

And I said 'master kilby

Oh, where are you bound? '

'i'm bound for the west

In hope to find rest

In the arms of my dear nancy

I'll build a new nest

And if I was the master

Of ten thousand pounds

In bright gold and silver

Or in king william's crown

I would part with it all

With my own heart so freely

It's all for the sake

Of my charming nancy

She's the fairest of girls

She's the choice of my heart

And her skin shines like silver

In every part

Oh, I gave her some kisses

It was down on the sea shore

But still she lay asking

Lay asking for more'
