The Wanton Seed Lyrics

As I walked out one spring morning fair, To view the fields and take the air, There I heard a pretty girl making her complain And all she wanted was the chiefest grain, the chiefest grain. And all she wanted was the chiefest grain. I said to her, My pretty maid Come tell me what you stand in need Oh yes kind sir you're the man to do the deed, For to sow my meadow with the wanton seed, the wanton seed, For to sow my mewadow with the wanton seed. Then I sowed high and I sowed low And under the bush the seed did grow It sprang up so accidentally without any weed And she always remembered the wanton seed, the wanton seed And she always remembered the wanton seed
