Over The River Charlie Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Is Charlie here, Is Charlie there
Is Charlie over the ocean?
Charlie he'll be back again if he don't change his notion
Charlie's neat and Charlie's sweet
And Charlie is a bandit
And every time he goes to town
He brings me sugar candies

[Verse 2]
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 next Sunday
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 [Verse 3]
Marry me my pretty little miss
Marry me good looking
I'll marry you but I won't do
Your washing or your cooking
Marry me my pretty little miss
Marry me tomorrow
I don't have a dress to wear but i'll find one to borrow

[Verse 4]
It's over the river to feed my sheep
over the river charlie
It's over the river to feed my sheep
And measure out my barley
I don't want none o' your weevily wheat
Don't want none o' your barley
Just take some flour in half an hour
And bake a cake for charlie
