Lyrics
He promised to meet me at Linstead Market,
Take-a me out to the show,
He promised to meet me at Linstead Market,
Take-a me out to the show.

CHORUS
I tell you, oh, what a night, what a night,
Oh, what a Saturday night, I tell-a you,
Oh, what a night, what a night,
Oh, what a Saturday night.

I waited and waited at Linstead Market,
Waiting just for my Joe,
She waited and waited at Linstead Market,
Waiting just for her Joe.

CHORUS

Everyone coming to Linstead Market,
All excepting my Joe,
Everyone coming to Linstead Market,
All excepting her Joe.

CHORUS

But I got me a letter at Linstead Market,
Right direct from my Joe,
Yes, she got her a letter at Linstead Market,
Right direct from her Joe.

CHORUS

Spoken: This letter say:
“I can’t meet you at Linstead Market,
I got married tonight.”
He can’t meet her at Linstead Market,
He got married tonight.

CHORUS

Spoken: But this letter also say P.S.
“But I’ll meet you tomorrow at Linstead Market,
Take-a you out to the show,
Yes, I’ll meet you tomorrow at Linstead Market,
Take-a you out to the show.”
