Over the water and over the lea

And over the water to Charley.

Charley loves good ale and wind

And Charley loves good brandy,

And Charley loves a pretty girl

As sweet as sugar candy.

 

Over the water and over the lea

And over the water to Charley.

I’ll have none of your nasty beef,

Nor I’ll have none of your barley,

But I’ll have some of your very best flour

To make a white cake for my Charley.
