[00:14.68] Oh hard is the fortune of all womankind
[00:22.01] They're always controlled; they're always confined
[00:29.76] Controlled by their parents until they are wives
[00:37.38] Then slaves to their husbands the rest of their lives
[00:45.58] I've been a poor girl; my fortune is sad
[00:52.33] I've always been courted by the Wagoner's Lad
[00:59.93] He courted me daily, by night and by day
[01:08.20] And now he is loaded and going away
[01:26.86] "Your parents don't like me because I am poor
[01:34.13] They say I'm not worthy of entering your door
[01:41.82] I work for my living; my money's my own
[01:49.70] And if they don't like me, they can leave me alone"
[01:56.93] "Your horses are hungry; go feed them some hay
[02:04.20] Come sit down here by me as long as you stay"
[02:12.08] "My horses ain't hungry; they won't eat your hay
[02:19.91] So fare you well, darling; I'll be on my way"
[02:27.24] "Your wagon needs greasing; your whip is to mend
[02:34.49] Come sit down her by me as long as you can"
[02:41.89] "My wagon is greasy; my whip's in my hand
[02:49.49] So fare you well darling, no longer to stand"
[02:56.27]
