Chorus. O John, come kiss me now, now, now; O John, my luve, come kiss me now I O John, come kiss me by and by, For weelye ken the way to wool
O some will court and compliment, And ither some will kiss and daut;
But I will mak o' my gudeman, My ain gudeman,—it is nae faute.
O, some will court and compliment, And ither some will prie their mou',
And some will hause in ither's arms, And that's the way I like to do! |
