On The Mountain
Sung by Norton Park schoolchildren.
On the mountain stands a lady,
Who she is I cannot tell.
All she wants is gold and silver,
All she wants is a nice young man.
So call in my Andrew dear,
Andrew dear, Andrew dear,
So call in my Andrew dear,
Andrew dear.
A game and skipping song. The first stanza is very
widely sung and quoted. Opie's The Singing Game # 36.
