Shirley Collins - Charlie (Weevily Wheat) lyrics

Your rating:

Oh, Charlie's neat and Charlie's sweet and Charlie he's a dandy
And ev'ry time he goes to town he brings me sugar candy
And I don't want none o' your weevily wheat and I don't want none o' your barley
Just take some flour in half an hour and bake a cake for Charlie

It's Charlie here and it's Charlie there, Charlie over the ocean
Oh, Charlie he'll be back again if he don't change his notion
My pretty little pink, I once did think I'd never do without you
But since I lost all hopes of you I care very little about you

How old are you, my pretty little miss? How old are you, my honey?
If I don't die of a broken heart I'll be sixteen on Sunday.
Oh, rink toomah dink toomah diddle eye dum, rink toomah dink toomah doodle,
Rink toomah dink toomah diddle eye dum, and a rink toomah dink toomah doodle.

Now can you court, my pretty little miss? And can you court, my flower?
I'll court more in a minute and a half than you can in an hour
Oh, rink toomah dink toomah diddle eye dum, rink toomah dink toomah doodle
Rink toomah dink toomah diddle eye dum, and a rink toomah dink toomah doodle

Will you marry me, my pretty little miss? Will you marry me, good looking'?
I'll marry you but I won't do your washin' or your cooking
Oh, rink toomah dink toomah diddle eye dum, rink toomah dink toomah doodle
Oh, rink toomah dink toomah diddle eye dum, and a rink toomah dink toomah doodle

Oh, Charlie he's a nice young man, Charlie he's a dandy
And every time he goes to town he brings me sugar candy
And I don't want none o' your weevily wheat, I don't want none o' your barley
Just take some flour in half an hour and bake a cake for Charlie

It's Charlie here and it's Charlie there, Charlie over the ocean
Oh, Charlie he'll be back again if he don't change his notion
