What tho' they call me country lass,
I read it plainly in my glass,
That for a Dutchess I might pass:
Oh, could I see the day!
Would fortune but attend my call,
At park, at play, at ring and ball,
I'd brave the proudest of them all,
With a stand by——clear the way.

II.

Surrounded by a crowd of beaux,
With smart toupees, and powder'd clothes,
At rivals I'll turn up my nose;
Oh, could I see the day!
I'll dart such glances from these eyes,
Shall make some Lord or Duke my prize;
And then, oh! how I'll tyrannise,
With stand by——clear the way.

III.

Oh! then for ev'ry new delight,
For equipage and diamonds bright,
Quadrille, and plays, and balls all night;
Oh! could I see the day!
Of love and joy I'd take my fill,
The tedious hours of life to kill,
In ev'ry thing I'd have my will,
With a stand by——clear the way.
