Doffing Mistress Songtext
von Maddy Prior

Oh do you know her or do you not
That new doffing mistress that we have got
Elsie Thompson it is her name
And she′ll hang her coat upon the highest pin

Tie your ends up she ______roar
Tie our ends up we surely do
For Elsie Thompson but not for you


Yes, tie our ends up we'll surely do
For Elsie Thompson but not for you
We′ll tie our ends and we'll leave our friends
And wait for Elsie to return again

Oh do you know her or do you not
This new doffing mistress that we have got
Elsie Thompson it is her name
And she hangs her doffers in vain
