Lyrics

Oh, where have you been, Billy Boy, Billy Boy?
Oh, where have you been, Charming Billy?
I have been to seek a wife, she's the joy of my life
She's a young thing and cannot leave her mother
Did she ask you to come in, Billy Boy, Billy Boy?
Did she ask you to come in, Charming Billy?
Yes, she asked me to come in and there's a dimple in her chin
But she's a young thing and cannot leave her mother
Did she set for you a chair, Billy Boy, Billy Boy?
Did she set for you a chair, Charming Billy?
Yes, she set for me a chair and she's got ringlets in her hair
But she's a young thing and cannot leave her mother
Can she bake a cherry pie, Billy Boy, Billy Boy?
Can she bake a cherry pie, Charming Billy?
She can bake a cherry pie quick as a cat can wink its eye
But she's a young thing and cannot leave her mother
How old is she, Billy Boy, Billy Boy?
How old is she, Charming Billy?
Three times six and four times seven, twenty-eight and eleven
She's a young thing and cannot leave her mother
