There were two sisters side by side
Sing aye dum, sing aye day
There were two sisters side by side
The boys are born for me
There were two sisters side by side
The eldest for young johnny cried
I’ll be true for my love
If he’ll be true to me

Johnny bought the youngest a gay gold ring…
He never bought the eldest a single thing…

Johnny bought the youngest a beaver hat…
The eldest never thought much of that…

As they were walking by the foamy brim…
The eldest pushed the youngest in…

Sister, oh sister give me thy hand…
And you can have johnny and all his land…

Sister i won’t give you my hand…
And i’ll have johnny and all his land…

So there she sank and away she swam…
Until she came to the miller’s dam…

Miller took away her gay gold ring…
And then he pushed her in again…

Miller he was hanged on the mountain head…
The eldest sister was boiled in lead…

Sylvilla looked into her mirror
Percilla looked into the washing machine
And the drudgery of being wed
She was so jealous of her sister
And her liberty, and her smart young friends
She was so jealous of her sister

Sylvilla looked into the wardrobe
Percilla looked into the frying pan
And the bacon and eggs
And the breakfast is served
She was so jealous of her sister
And her way of life, and her luxury flat
She was so jealous of her sister

She threw away her dirty dishes just to be free again
Her women’s weekly magazines just to be free again
And put the children in the nursery just to be free again
Percilla saw her little children
And then decided she was better off
Than the wayward lass that her sister had been
No longer jealous of her sister
So she ran ‘round the house with her curlers on
No longer jealous of her sister
