When first you came courting,
My own heart's delight
I met you with sporting
and saucy despite,
And of other fine fellows
I made you mad jealous,
When first you came courting
My own heart's delight!
In turn then you tried me,
My own heart's delight,
for coldly you eyed me
Or shrank from my sight.
Or with Norah you chattered
Of Florah you flattered
Sitting close up beside me.
You rogue you were right!
But sit down beside me,
my own heart's delight
To comfort and guide me
I'm yours from tonight!
I've tasted and I've vexed you,
I've plased and peplexed you,
But sit down beside me,
we're one from tonight!
