To carry the milking pail;
She also kept five labouring men
To use the spade and flail.
'Twas Moll and Bet, and Doll and Kate, and Dorothy Draggletail,
And John and Dick, and Joe and Jack, and Humphrey with his flail.
'Twas John kiss'd Molly,
And Dick kiss'd Betty,
And Joe kiss'd Dolly,
And Jack kiss'd Katty,

To rouse her servants, maids and men,
She then began to bawl.
‘Twas Moll and Bet…

The birds began to prate,
Dame Durden's servants, maids and men,
They all began to mate.
‘Twas Moll and Bet…
