Brogan Boots and Leggings (Old Man From Over the Sea) | Banjo Song
Brogan Boots and Leggings is sometimes called, The Old Man From Over the Sea or Old Shoes and Leggins. It tells the story about how a mother tries to marry up her daughter with an old man who happens to have a lot of gold. I learned this version from, Clifton Hicks, who has a YouTube channel. Highly recommend his channel if you like old time banjo music. I sing and play this song on the mountain banjo.
Brogan Boots and Leggings lyrics
Banjo tuned down from standard G to C sharp
Old John Brown wants to marry me but I wont have him
I hate hime though he loves me with his brogan boots and leggings
Old John Brown his beards too white, I wont have him
I could not sleep with hime at night with his brogan boots and leggings
Old John Brown`s got a lot of gold but I wont have him
I`m too young and he`s too old with his brogan boots and leggings
Mother made me take him home but I wont have him
I took him home and he gnawed on a bone with his brogan boots and leggings
Mother made me set him a chair but I wont have him
I set him a chair and he run like a bear with his brogan boots and leggings
Mother made me take him to bed but I wont have him
I took him to bed and he laid like he`s dead with his brogan boots and leggings
Mother made me kiss him goodbye but I wont have him
I kissed him goodbey and I thought I die with his brogan boots and leggings
