8 "I've asked them to tell me what stood in the way3
They've all of them answered, cI'd rather not say'; And I can't tell why the reason may be That none of those girls won't marry me."
* 5k *
9 I thought to myself that while passing along I'd make a reply to the bachelor's song: "Oh, sir, I can tell you just what you must do If you want a young lady to marry you.
10 "Go shave off your whiskers and powder your hair,
Go dress yourself up with the greatest of care, Put on a broadsword and bright buckles, too, If you want a young lady to marry you."
11 Now this is the hook and the catch of a bachelor's life, Cheer up, young man, and get you a wife,
Make no delay, by which you get none, For this is the way the old bachelor done. |
