Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Thee I love, more than the meadow so green, and still

More than the mulberries on the hill

More than the buds of a May apple tree

I love thee

[Verse 2]

Arms have I, strong as the oak, for this occasion

Lips have I, to kiss thee too, in friendly persuasion

Thee is mine, though I don't know many words of praise

Thee pleasures me in a hundred ways

Put on your bonnet, your cape and your glove

And come with me, for thee I love

[Verse 3]

Friendly persuasion

Thee is mine, though I don't know many words of praise

Thee pleasures me in a hundred ways

Put on your bonnet, your cape and your glove

And come with me, for thee I love
