O young Janie, fair by feature
She would never a bargain miss
Thirty sheep for just one kiss
Oh Janie, sweet Janie
Please be patient and don't be keen
And when you find him, you'll remind him
He's the king, you are the queen
O the next day on the 'morrow
Heart full-bursting and kept from sleep
Thirty kisses for just one sheep
Oh Janie, sweet Janie
Please be patient and don't be keen
And when you find him, you'll remind him
He's the king, you are the queen
O the next day, grown more tender
Thirty sheep she will surrender
For just one single loving kiss
Oh Janie, sweet Janie
Please be patient and don't be keen
And when you find him, you'll remind him
He's the king, you are the queen
O another day is over
Sheep and dog, he just might get
But young Damon, no more the rover
For her kisses remains in debt
Oh Janie, sweet Janie
Please be patient and don't be keen
And when you find him, you'll remind him
He's the king, you are the queen
