Bawdy Songs

Here you can find lyrics for various Bawdy Songs. Some of them are period and some of them are not. Either way they are entertaining, though probably not appropriate for younger ears as may of them are suggestive, and/or some what lewd.  They can be a lot of fun to sing or to listen to and can often be heard around the Ren Faire sites.

Where known, the author of the song is listed. For some of the songs you will also find a Midi file with the tune, or an MP3 file of a portion of the song being played. If you have any additional information on any songs listed here, please e-mail the webmaster.
