in good old colony days

when we lived under the king

lived a miller and a weaver and a little tailor

three jolly rogues of lynne

three jolly rogues of lynne

three jolly rogues of lynne

lived a miller and a weaver and a little tailor

three jolly rogues of lynne

now the miller he stole wheat

and the weaver he stole yarn

and the little tailor

he stole broadcloth

for to keep these three rogues warm

for to keep these three rogues warm

for to keep these three rogues warm

and the little tailor

he stole broadcloth

for to keep these three rogues warm

now the miller was drowned in his dam

and the weaver got hanged in his yarn

and the devil got his paws on the little tailor

with the broadcloth under his arm

with the broadcloth under his arm

with the broadcloth under his arm

yes the devil got his paws on the little tailor

with the broadcloth under his arm

now the miller floats in his dam

and the weaver hangs in his yarn

and the little tailor

he skips through hell

with the broadcloth under his arm

with the broadcloth under his arm

with the broadcloth under his arm

yes the little tailor

he skips through hell

with the broadcloth under his arm

the miller was drowned in his dam

and the weaver was hanged in his yarn

and the devil got a paw on the little tailor

with the broadcloth under his arm

with the broadcloth under his arm

with the broadcloth under his arm

and the devil got a paw on the little tailor

with the broadcloth under his arm

with the broadcloth under his arm

and the little tailor

he skips through hell

with the broadcloth under his arm
