Lyrics

Mary swearing at the bucket
Trying to find the handle
Gotta get to town soon
Annie go n get ya boots on
I could hear ya singing last night

It’s a long way there
And a full day back
Let’s get walking
Gotta get to town on time

Annie I’m doing all the milking
You been on the sherry
Gotta get to town soon
Mary falling in the river
I could hear you swearing last night

It’s a long way home
And a full day there
Let’s get walking
Gotta get to town on time

And when we get home sister
We’ll have earned our ticket
We’ll put it with the others and begin again

Mary better grab your jacket
The west winds a blowing
Gotta get to town soon
Annie I could hear ya singing
Dunno what ya saying
I’m really trying to hear now
Who you are and how you were

Living in the cottage sister and sister
Living on the island i’m really gonna miss ya
Living in the cottage
Sister sister love sister love sister love
