COMMON BILL

COMMON BILL
I'll tell you OF a fellow.
OF a fellow I have seen:
He Is neither black nor yellow,
But he's altogether green,
His name it isn't charming,
Nothing but Common Bill.
And he wishes me to wed him
But hardly think ] will.
He whispers of devotion,
OF devotion pure and deep.
1t sounds so very silly,
That 1 almost fall asleep,
He thinks it's very charming,
AS we journey down the Hill;
Go hand in hand together,
But 1 hardly think 1 will.
He tells me of n cottage,
OF cottage among the trees,
And don't you think that fellow,
Tumbled down upon his knees
The like of tears he wasted;
Was enough to turn the mill,
He begged me to accept him.
But 1 hardly think l will.
am sure I would not choose him,
For the very deuce is in It,
He says IL / refuse him,
That he could not live a minute,
I've studied the Blessed bible.
And 1t tells me not to kill,
So I've thought the matter over.
And / guess I'll marry Bill.
