Miss I’ll give you apaper of pins,
And that’s the way our love begins,
If you’ll but marry me, me, me,
If you’ll but marry me.
I will not except a paper of pins,
If that’s the way our love begins,
Nor will I marry you, you, you,
Nor will I marry you.
Miss I’ll give you a little black dog,
That you may have to go abroad,
If you’ll but marry me, me, me,
If you’ll but marry me.
I will not except a little black dog,
Etc.
Miss I’ll give you a coach and pair,
That you may have to take the air,
If you’ll but marry me, me, me,
If you’ll but marry me.
I will not except a coach and pair,
Etc.
Miss I’ll give you the key to my heart,
That you and I may never part,
If you’ll but marry me, me, me,
If you’ll but marry me.
I’ll not except the key to your heart,
Etc.
Miss I’ll give you the key to my chest,
That you may have told at your request,
If you’ll but marry me, me, me,
If you’ll but marry me.
I will not except the key to your chest,
Etc.
Ha! ha! if money is all,
Then I won’t marry you at all,
And I won’t marry you, you, you,
And I won’t marry you.
