Madam

a maiden walking in her garden
but her name i do not know
i'll go and court her for her beauty
let the answer be yes or no
madam, madam, i'll come a courting
that your favor i may gain
sit you down you're kindly welcome
then perhaps you may call again
madam i have gold and silver
madam i have house and land
madam i have a world of pleasure
leave it all at your command
don't tell me of your gold and silver
don't tell me of your house and land
dont tell me of your will to pleasure
all i want is a handsome man
handsome men are out of fashion
maidens beauty soon decays
you'll be a flower of the bright summer morning
before the evening will fade away
first come the oxslip then the cruel
then the pink and then the maid
then come a new love and then come true love
before the evening will fade away
once i layed on a young man's pillow
which i thought it was my own
now i do lay under the willow
all for the sake of a false young man
before the evening will fade away
