When I was a farmer, a Farmer's Boy,
I used to keep my master's HORSES,
With a GEE-WO here, and a GEE-WO there,
And here a GEE, and there a GEE,
And everywhere a GEE;

Says I, My pretty lass, will you come to the banks of the Aire oh?

I used to keep my master's LAMBS,
With a BAA-BAA here, and a BAA-BAA there,
And here a BAA, and there a BAA,
And everywhere a BAA;
With a GEE-WO here, and a GEE-WO there,
And here a GEE, and there a GEE,
And everywhere a GEE;

Says I, My pretty lass, will you come to the banks of the Aire oh?
