By Unknown

Margaret wrote a letter, Seal'd it with her finger, Threw it in the dam For the dusty miller. Dusty was his coat, Dusty was the siller, Dusty was the kiss I'd from the dusty miller. If I had my pockets Full of gold and siller, I would give it all To my dusty miller. Chorus. O the little, little, Rusty, dusty, miller.
