Padstow -

Unite and unite, oh let us all unite

For summer is a-comin' today

And whither we are going, we all will unite

In the merry morning of May

The young men of Padstow, they might if they would

For summer is a-comin' today

They might have built a ship and gilded it with gold

In the merry morning of May

The young women of Padstow, they might if they would

For summer is a-comin' today

They might have raised a garland with the white rose and the red

In the merry morning of May

Rise up, Mrs. Johnson, all in your gown of green

For summer is a-comin' today

You are as fine a lady as awaits upon the green

In the merry morning of May

Where are the young maids who now here should sing

For summer is a-comin' today

They’re all out in the meadow, a-flower-gathering

In the merry morning of May

Arise all you Pagans with all the joy you bring

For summer is a-comin' today

And bring to us a mug of beer, the merrier we shall sing

In the merry morning of May
