Take care daughter dear Don't dream on any gallant men tonight Take care daughter dear For the doctor comes to steal your goods in the dead of night Every sigh he'll hear So wear your relic near Doctor Monk unpacks his trunk tonight Oh father dear I dreamed last night a man sat on my bed And I fear When I awoke I could not find my maidenhead (Chorus) He'll have you all You fine young ladies pure as fallen snow He'll have you all If you think upon improper things the doctor will know (Chorus) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The recording on Full House is a semi-tone higher, if my memory serves me, so to play along you may need a capo on the first fret. In the film "Glastonbury Fayre" in which they play the "Dirty Linen" medley live their instruments appear to be tuned a semi-tone above concert pitch, so maybe that is how they recorded this track.
