No, I tell you I can't and I shan't get away,
For De Boots has implor'd me to sing.
As to you—if you like it, of course you can stay;
You were always an obstinate thing.
If you feel it a pleasure to talk to the flow'rs
About'"babble and revel and wine,"
When you might have been snoring for two or three hours.
Why, it's not the least business of mine.
