A-Soalin' (Peter Paul & Mary)
[chorus]:
Soal, soal, soal cake, please good
missus a soal cake. An apple, a pear,
a plum, a cherry, Any good thing to
make us all merry One for Peter, two
for Paul, three for Him who made us
all.
God bless the master of this house, and the
mistress also , And all the little children
that 'round the table go. The cattle in your
stable, the dog by your front door, And all that
dwells within ye gates, we wish you ten times
more.
[chorus]
Go down into the cellar and see what you can
find. If the barrels are not empty, we hope you
will be kind. We hope you will be kind, your
apple and strawberr', Oh, come a-soalin' this
time next year.
[chorus]
The streets are very dirty, my shoes are very
thin. I have a little pocket to put a penny
in. If you haven't got a penny, a half-penny
will do . If you haven't got a half-penny,
then God bless you.
[chorus]
