At the Purchaser's Option Lyrics

I've got a babe but shall I keep him
'Twill come the day when I'll be weepin'
But how can I love him any less
This little babe upon my breastYou can take my body
You can take my bones
You can take my blood
But not my soulYou can take my body
You can take my bones
You can take my blood
But not my soulI've got a body dark and strong
I was young but not for long
You took me to bed a little girl
Left me in a woman's worldYou can take my body
You can take my bones
You can take my blood
But not my soulYou can take my body
You can take my bones

You can take my blood
But not my soulDay by day I work the line
Every minute overtime
Fingers nimble, fingers quick
My fingers bleed to make you richYou can take my body
You can take my bones
You can take my blood
But not my soulYou can take my body
You can take my bones
You can take my blood
But not my soulYou can take my body
You can take my bones
You can take my blood
But not my soulTake my body
You can take my bones
You can take my blood
But not my soul
