The Lowell Factory Girl
No more shall I work in the factory, Greasy up my clothesNo more shall I work in the factory, Splinters in my toesPity me, my darlin', pity me I sayPity me, my darlin', and carry me awayNo more shall I hear the bosses say, "Boys you better doff"No more shall I hear the bosses say, "Spinners you better clean off"Pity me, my darlin', pity me I sayPity me, my darlin', and carry me awayNo more shall I hear the drummer wheels Rollin' over my headWhen factories are hard at work, I'll be in my bedPity me, my darlin', pity me I sayPity me, my darlin', and carry me awayNo more shall I wear the old black dress, Greasy all aroundNo more shall I wear the old black bonnet With holes all in the crownPity me, my darlin', pity me I sayLetras de cancionesPity me, my darlin', and carry me awayNo more shall I see the super come All dressed up so proudFor I know I'll marry a country boy When the year is outPity me, my darlin', pity me I sayPity me, my darlin', and carry me away Pity me, my darlin', pity me I sayPity me, my darlin', and carry me away
