'Tis of a rich merchant who in London did dwell

He had but one daughter, an uncommon fine gel

Her name it was Dinah, scarce sixteen years old

With a very large fortune in silver and gold

Singing: toorala loorala loorala ay

As Dinah was a-walking in her garden one day
Her papa he came to her, and thus he did say:
"Go dress yourself, Dinah, in gorgeous array
And get you a husband both gallant and gay!"

Singing: toorala loorala loorala ay

"Oh, papa Oh, papa I've not made up my mind
And to marry just yet, why I don't feel inclined
To you my large fortune I'll gladly give o'er
If you'll let me live single a year or two more."

 Singing: toorala loorala loorala ay

"Go, go, boldest daughter," the parent replied;
"If you won't consent to be this here young man's bride,
I'll give your large fortune to the nearest of kin,
And you shan't reap the benefit of one single pin."

Singing: toorala loorala loorala ay

As Villikins was walking the garden around
He spied his dear Dinah lying dead on the ground
And a cup of cold pizen it lay by her side
With a billet-doux stating 'twas by pizen she died

Singing: toorala loorala loorala ay

He kissed her cold corpus a thousand times o'er
He called her his Dinah though she was no more
Then swallowed the pizen like a lover so brave
And Villikins and his Dinah lie both in one grave

Singing: toorala loorala loorala ay

Now all you young maidens take warning by her
Never not by no means disobey your gov'nor
And all you young fellows mind who you clap eyes on
Think of Villikins and his Dinah and the cup of cold pizen

Singing: toorala loorala loorala ay
