Their nut-brown locks and their teeth so white,

The lasses were always my delight,

And I am the boy for them.

With my capering, tapering, twirling toe,

My billet-doux note or letter a;

My sighing—pining—whining—oh!

My person—eye—etcetera!

My taste is wondrous civil, too;

For mark, ye ladies, this—

There's nought you say, there's nought you do,
