The Crockery Ware This old maid lay on her bed, thinking on some tricks to play. This old maid lay on her bed, thinking on some tricks to play. Behind the door she placed a chair and on that chair some crockery ware. Chorus: To me wee whack fol de di dol li li-o, To me wee whack fol de di dol li li-o. Now Jack came in all in the dark, looking for his dear sweetheart ... He hooked his toe into the chair, and smashed up all the crockery ware. The old woman jumped up in a hell of a fright, calling for her candlelight... She says "Young man, what brought you here, all smashing up my crockery ware?" He says, "Old woman, don't be so cross, I lost my way into a loss ... Here's a four pound four for your broken chair, and ten pound ten for your crockery ware." Come all young man who have sweethearts, never go courting in the dark ... For if you do you'll find it there, you'll trip along in the crockery ware. Kenneth Goldstein got it from Henry Belben
