Black Jack Davey came ridin' through the woods
                 C      
He was singin' so loud and gaily
G                         Em  
Made the hills around him ring
       G                
And He Charmed the heart of a lady
G                       
Charmed the heart of a lady


[Verse 2]
G                                  C 
"How old are you, my pretty little miss
G                   Em    
How old are you, my honey?"
G                                       C
She answered to him with a silly little smile
         G              
"I’ll be sixteen next Sunday
G                       
Be sixteen next Sunday"


[Verse 3]
G                                   C
"Come, go with me, my pretty little miss
G                    Em   
Come, go with me, my honey
         G              
Take you across the dark dark sea
G                       
You never shall want for money
G                       
Never shall want for money"


[Verse 4]
G                                   C
Well she pulled of them high-heeled boots
G                         Em   
They were made of Spanish leather
        G               
She put on her low-heeled shoes
         G              
And they rode off together
G                       
They both rode off together


[Verse 5]
G                                    C   
Last night I slept on a warm feather bed
G                     Em  
Beside my husband and baby
G                                C 
Tonight I sleep on the cold cold ground
G                       
Beside the Black Jack Davey
G                       
Pretty little Black Jack Davey

He was singin' so loud and gaily
G                         Em
Made the hills around him ring
       G                
and he charmed the heart of a lady
G                       
Charmed the heart of a lady
