R.: Oh, dear me! Johnny's so long at the fair.
Oh, dear! Oh dear me!
Oh, dear! what can the matter be?

He promised he'd buy me a fairing should please me,
He promised he'd bring me a bunch of blue ribbons,
And it's oh, dear! what can the matter be?

He promised he'd bring me a basket of posies
A little straw hat to set off the blue ribbons,
And it's Oh, dear! what can the matter be?

And then for a kiss, oh! he vow'd he would tease me, Oh dear me!
To tie up my bonny brown hair.
Oh, dear, me! Dear, dear, me. Oh, dear me.

A garland of lilies, a garland of roses, Oh, dear me!
that tie up my bonny brown hair.
Oh, dear me! Dear, dear me!
