Black Jack David Black Jack David come ridin' through the woods, Singin' so loud and merry That the green hills all around him rang, And he charmed the heart of a lady, And he charmed the heart of a lady. How old are you, my pretty little miss, How old are you my lady. She answered him with a “gee, he, he”, I'll be sixteen next summer, I'll be sixteen next summer. Come, go with me, my pretty little miss, Come, go with me, my lady I'll take you across the deep blue sea, Where you never shall want for money, Where you never shall want for money.
