The Bedmaking - Martin Carthy[00:00:00]

Me father he was a good old man[00:00:20]

He put me to service when I was very young[00:00:23]

Me missus and me we never could agree[00:00:26]

Because that my master he would love me[00:00:28]

Missus sent me all upstairs to the loft[00:00:31]

To make up a bed both neat and soft[00:00:33]

Master followed after with a gay gold ring[00:00:36]

Saying Betty have this for your bedmaking[00:00:38]

All through the kitchen and down through the hall[00:00:41]

All through the parlour among the women all[00:00:44]

Master followed up with a gay gold ring[00:00:46]

Saying Betty have this for your bedmaking[00:00:49]

Missus come upstairs in a great haste[00:01:02]

Caught the master there with his arm round me waist[00:01:04]

From the top to the bottom she did him fling[00:01:07]

Saying master take that for your bedmaking[00:01:09]

All through the kitchen and down through the hall[00:01:12]

All through the parlour among the women all[00:01:15]

Everybody asked me wherever I had been[00:01:17]

And they laughed when I said[00:01:20]

At the bedmaking[00:01:21]

Mistress she flung me out of the door[00:01:33]

She called me a nasty cheeky little whore[00:01:35]

The weather being wet and my clothes being thin[00:01:38]

How I wished I was back at the bedmaking[00:01:40]

Six month over and seven month past[00:02:09]

Pretty fair maid grew thick about the waist[00:02:12]

Her stays wouldn't meet nor her pinafore pin[00:02:15]

She cried when she thought of the bedmaking[00:02:17]

Eight month over and nine month gone[00:02:20]

Pretty fair maid had a beautiful son[00:02:22]

She's took him to the church she had him christened John[00:02:25]

And she took him back again to the dear old man[00:02:27]

She cursed him through the kitchen and down through the hall[00:02:31]

Cursed him through the parlour among the women all[00:02:33]

Saying if you won't pay me take your little son John[00:02:36]

Cos he never cost you nothing but the bedmaking[00:02:39]
