Lyrics
Come write me down, ye powers above The man that first created love For I've a diamond in my eye Where all my joys and comforts lie Where all my joys and comforts lie “I will give you gold, I will give you pearl If you could fancy me, dear girl Rich costly robes that you shall wear If you could fancy me, my dear If you could fancy me, my dear” “'Tis not your gold shall me entice To leave off pleasures to be a wife For I don't mean or intend at all To be at any young man's call To bе at any young man's call” “Then go your way you scornful dame Since you'vе proved false I will prove the same 'Tis I don't seek and I shall find Some other fair maid to my mind Some other fair maid to my mind” “Oh, stay young man, don't be in haste You seem afraid your time you will waste Let reason rule your roving mind And unto you I will prove kind And unto you I will prove kind” So to Church they went that very next day And were married by asking, as I've heard say And now that girl she is his wife She will prove his comfort day and night She will prove his comfort day and night
