[Verse 1] There's me black dog and sheep-crook I will give it to you Here's me bag and me budget I bid you adieu There's me black dog and sheep-crook I leave it behind Fine laurel, fine floral You've proved all unkind [Verse 2] All to my dear Dinah these words did I say Tomorrow we'll be married love, tomorrow is the day 'Tis too soon dear Willy, my age is too young One day to our wedding is one day too soon [Verse 3] Now, I'll go into service if the day ain't to late To wait on a fine lady, it is my intent And when into servicе a year or two bound It's then we'll gеt married and both settle down [Verse 4] Oh, a little time after a letter was wrote For to hear if my Dinah had changed here mind And she wrote that she's led such a contrary life She said that she'd never be a young shepherd's wife [Refrain] Here's my bag and my budget I bid it adieu There's me black dog and sheep-crook I will give it to you There's me black dog and sheep-crook I leave it behind Fine laurel, fine floral You've proved all unkind
