[1st verse:]
|
Spooning and crooning they sit
|
Loving it quite a bit
|
Telling lies by the pack
|
See him steal a kiss from the pretty miss
|
Watch him put it back, smack!
|
"Honey, oh, honey, I swear
|
By my hair that I care
|
For nobody but you
|
Can't you tell the way I woo
|
That I love you, love you true?"
|
Then the maiden sings this chorus old
|
But sings it, oh, so new
|
|
[Refrain:]
|
Bring me a ring in the Spring
|
And I'll know that you love me
|
A simple band of gold
|
Just like your father gave your mother in the days of old
|
Say what you may, what you say
|
Doesn't mean that you love me
|
So if you want me to
|
Love you true
|
Bring me a ring in the Spring
|
And I'll know that you love me
|
|
[2nd verse:]
|
"Whispering nothings, my dear
|
In my ear when I'm near
|
Is as sweet as can be
|
But I sit and grieve when you have to leave
|
That's what worries me, see!
|
When I'm just bathing in woe
|
Don't you know that my beau
|
Should be right by my side?
|
Then again I've tried and tried
|
To become a blushing bride
|
If you love me, tie it with a knot
|
That cannot be untied"
|
