Mum went to the market

mum went to the market
to get cabbage and came
with a girl for me
oh what a girl she is
beautiful and sweet
with white teeth, a real kitten

mum went to the market
to get coal and
came bach with a polish girl
oh what a girl she is
beautiful and sweet
with black eyes, my gentle kitten

i've eaten almonds
i've drunk my wine
i fell in love with that
girl and can't live without her
oh what a girl she is
beautiful and sweet
with black eyes, a real kitten
