from [[Copper Family|The Copper Family]]<br />
<br />
#There was an old farmer in Cheshire,<br/>To market his daughter did go,<br/>And thinking that no-one would harm her<br/>As she'd oft-times been that road before<br/><br/><br />
#Her business at the market being ended<br/>And all her fine goods being sold,<br/>Her journey back homewards she wended<br/>Her pockets well lined with gold. <br/><br/><br />
#She met with a rusty highwayman<br/>Two pistols he held to her breast,<br/>Saying deliver your money, your clothing,<br/>Or else you shall die in distress. <br/><br/><br />
#She being a buxom young damsel,<br/>Dismounted as though unafraid,<br/>One slash from her whip sent him sprawling<br/>And his pistols she took as he laid. <br/><br/><br />
#She put her left foot in the stirrup<br/>And mounted her horse like a man,<br/>Then shouted back over her shoulder,<br/>Catch me you old rogue if you can. <br/><br/><br />
#The rogue he soon follow-ed after<br/>But began for to puff and to blow,<br/>Then seeing he could not overtake her<br/>Sat down full of sorrow and woe. <br/><br/><br />
#Her father being anxious about her<br/>And finding 'twas getting quite late,<br/>When hoof-beats he heard fast approaching <br/>As she galloped up to the farm gate. <br/><br/><br />
#Oh, daughter, oh, daughter, what's happened,<br/>What kept you at the market so long?<br/>Oh father, I fell in great danger,<br/>But the rogue he has done me no wrong. <br/><br/><br />
#She put her grey horse in the stable,<br/>And laid a white cloth on the floor,<br/>They counted her money a thousand,<br/>A thousand, yes a thousand times o'er.<br />
