Eggs In Her Basket

From the album Sweet Liberty
Played in 3/4 time
Am Dm
It's of two young sailor lads out a-walking
Am G G7 E
Their pockets being both lined with gold
Am Dm
As they went a-walking and civilly talking
Am Dm E Am
Some fair pretty damsel they do behold.
Am Dm
O lady, lady can I carry your basket?
Am G G7 E
O there's eggs in the basket oh do take care,
Am Dm
And if you should chance to outwalk me,
Am Dm E Am
At the halfway house you'll find me later there.
Am Dm
So these two young men they start out walking
Am G G7 E
Until they come to the halfway house
Am Dm
O landlord, landlord have you any bacon?
Am Dm E Am
For in my basket I've got eggs to fry.
Am Dm
So that landlord he went to the basket
Am G G7 E
A-thinking he'd got eggs to fry
Am Dm
O say young man ain't you mistaken?
Am Dm E Am
O for in this basket we've got a child.
Am Dm
Up steps this Nancy o dearest Nancy
Am G G7 E
That had taken to bed last Whitsuntide
Am Dm
We got this young child since I came your fancy
Am Dm E Am
So now gay fiddler you've got to pay.
Am Dm
That child's not ours, lovely Nancy
Am G G7 E
He's no babe o' mine nor no friend's beside
Am Dm
But I will take it I'll kindly treat it
Am Dm E Am
If you will say all my money's paid.
Am Dm
Oh that young man went up to the basket
Am G G7 E
He's kicked it around and around the floor
Am Dm
Oh since it is done I will surely pay it
Am Dm E Am
But damn me if I do eat eggs anymore.
(slowly )
Am Dm C Am E Am
