No. 20 - Duet - Lady Violet and Zaccary
| Lady Violet: | There's a Yorkshire town, very bleak and brown, Where your life is not too gay. |
| Zaccary: | For the wheels go round with a buzzing sound, And the chimneys smoke all day. |
| Lady Violet: | But there's a lass, in that dull place, Who livens up the neighbours with her sunny little face, |
| Zaccary: | And the lads all stare as she runs along, |
| Both: | When the old mill bell goes ding, ding, dong! |
| Lady Violet: | Liza Ann is a neat young lass, And she's working up at Briggs's mill, |
| Zaccary: | Ev'ry morning at six o'clock You can see her walking up the hill. |
| Lady Violet: | There she goes with her turn'd up nose! |
| Zaccary: | And her dinner in a nice tin can, |
| Both: | Oh, you'll all of you be mad When you see another lad Is a-taking out Liza Ann! |
| Lady Violet: | Now there's work to do all the long day through, And it's Liza does her share; |
| Zaccary: | For you must have bread and a nice warm bed, And you must have clothes to wear. |
| Lady Violet: | But after work there's a time for play, And Liza Ann's a good 'un at a summer holiday, |
| Zaccary: | Oh, you should just see her in May or June |
| Both: | On a nice fine Saturday afternoon! |
| Lady Violet: | Liza Ann is a neat young lass, And she's working up at Briggs's mill, |
| Zaccary: | Ev'ry morning at six o'clock You can see her walking up the hill. |
| Lady Violet: | There she goes with her turn'd up nose! |
| Zaccary: | And her dinner in a nice tin can, |
| Both: | Oh, you'll all of you be mad When you see another lad Is a-taking out Liza Ann! |
