Generous Lover
O, the first time I saw my love, happy was I I knew not what love was or how to deny So I made too much freedom of my love's company Saying, my generous lover, you're welcome to me
My friends and relations, they angry are all Because I went with you from my father's fine hall But my friends, my relations, let them all angry be For my generous lover, you're welcome to me
He said, now my darling, it's I must away For I no longer in this country can stay So keep your mind easy, love, keep your heart free Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And let no man be thy sharer, my darling, but me
This poor pretty creature she turned herself round With her cheeks white as ivory and tears pouring down Jimmy, dear Jimmy, you're the first one e'er wooed me And I'm sorry now I ever said 'You're welcome to me
O, happy's the girl that ne'er loved a man She may easy tie up her narrow waistband She's free from all sorrow, all sad misery That never said, my lover, you're welcome to me
