O Aye My Wife She Dang Me

Chorus-O aye my wife she dangme,
An’ aftmy wife she bang’d me,
If ye giea woman a’ her will,
Gudefaith! she’ll soon o’er-gang ye.

On peace an’rest my mindwas bent,
And, fool I was! I married;
Butnever honest man’s intent
Sane cursedly miscarried.
O aye my wife, &c.

Some sairiecomfort at the last,
When a’thirdays are done, man,
My pains o’ hell on earth is past,
I’m sure o’bliss aboon, man,
O aye my wife, &c.
