Unconstant Lover |
| Oh it’s meetings a pleasure and it’s parting a grieve |
| And an unconstant lover is worse not a thief |
| For the thief he will rob you and just steal what you have |
| But an unconstant lover will follow you to your grave |
| For the thief he will rob you and just steal what you have |
| But an unconstant lover will follow you to your grave |
| Oh they’ll buy you fine trinkets, fine garments and flowers |
| And they’ll call in at tea-time to pay their devours |
| They’ll swear that they love you by the light of the moon |
| And propose marriage? |
| No, sherry cobblers at Taylor’s Saloon. |
| Ah but when you are married look out for your hub |
| 'Cause evenings you spend at the old fellows' club |
| At the officer’s store he was kept, he’ll pretend |
| And so he was too, drinking rum with a friend |
| At the officer’s store he was kept, he’ll pretend |
| And so he was too, drinking rum with a friend |
| But fortunes are false and a fickle young day |
| And it’s worse than bad luck for to die an old maid |
| And the best of all blessings we can meet in this life |
| Is a kind, loving husband and a good-tempered wife |
| And the best of all blessings we can meet in this life |
| Is a kind, loving husband and a good-tempered wife |
