mally's meek, mally's sweet

chorus—mally's meek, mally's sweet,

mally's modest and discreet;

mally's rare, mally's fair,

mally's every wayplete.

as i was walking up the street,

a barefit maid i chanc'd to meet;

but o the road was very hard

for that fair maiden's tender feet.

mally's meek, &c.
